"Councillor David Parsons, leader of Leicestershire County Council and chairman of the East Midlands Regional Assembly, said: "It is extremely disappointing and we will not take this lying down.

"This has serious economic implications for Leicestershire and the region. We will be the fastest-growing area in the coming years but they still refuse to electrify our railway line."
