Yougov Polling: Starmer vs Corbyn: how does Labour’s new leader stack up? If he's only failed to bring 7% of the party to his side then I'd say he's doing fine

Well the Northern Fail app says 168 reduced carriage services today so I'd say that Northern appear to be short of trains.

I agree that if they're reinstating a Barnsley - London link then you might as well extend it to Wakefield, might give it a better chance to survive this time. Yes the Leeds/Bradford to Nottingham service should be going Westgate instead of Kirkgate but there's supposedly a Leeds - Sheffield...

Just boarded it at Sandal, 331 110

If it's the same setup as Virgin have setup at Wigan North Western then they can print to a credit card sized ticket printer; bought my GM Wayfarer from a floor walker with tablet and paper roll ticket printer but there was a CCST printer by the ticket office counters which she printed to from...

I've never had any issues with EMT Guards using a Grindleford & a Wayfarer, even been happy to sell me the Wayfarer on board when my local ticket office refused to sell me the split.

If there is sufficient time before your connection then it can't be disregarded as a opportunity to purchase but if it would cause a missed valid connection then you can purchase later.

Except when they've been at the Wheel Lathes for tyre turning themselves! DRS had to hire in other class 20's for a time so the RHTT could run.

They have been, I live near the line and got a letter last month saying they were doing vegetation clearance works along the line on weekends.

Which 7 day rover only has validity on Northern?

Because regardless of which way it ends up they need the DfT on their side, either they get the franchise agreement changed so needing the DfTs to agree to that or they push on with it and end up with ASLEF striking as well and need the DfT to back them up when no Northern services run at all on...

The tram train service is just that route but the tram trains (when fitted with the tram bogies) do run the normal tram services as well
