Scottish first minister Nicola Sturgeon and Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham have had private meetings about the best way to spur the Department for Transport (DfT) into replacing HS2’s axed £3bn Golborne link to take high-speed trains to Scotland.

Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham has called on the government to devolve control of the UK’s railway stations to local leaders in order to drive growth and investment in their respective areas.
