Northern trains


Seen the 1300 on my drive thru, completely chocca.
That n 12 are thr peak ones.
Joke.
17:50 train back down cancelled last night due to a lack of conductors. The 18:01 was delayed by about 15 minutes but it had 4 carriages.

Free journey too!
 
Been a shambles the last couple of nights.
17:20 train Seaham to Newcastle 18 mins late last night.
18:20 train tonight not turning up till 18:47!
 
This kind of service would not be acceptable down south.
If a few of bent boris chums lived up here things might be different. I’m still waiting on this levelling up bullshit. I’ve a feeling if I lived to be a hundred I’d still be waiting. The service up here is no better than it was 60 years ago, and in some cases worse.
 
Just had an e-mail from our friends at Northern Trains

25% off for anyone with a mate, no need for a railcard.


edit haven't read the fine print as does not apply to me (because I have a Old Codgers Railcard, not because I have no mates)
