I use the Crewe to Euston service quite regularly and have found it pretty reliable. Time keeping has slipped a bit in recent weeks but I've not seen much in the way of cancellations. Looks like there's been a full complement of CRE-EUS services today with none cancelled. If only my experiences...

On a recent trip with LNR, the guard on our pair of 350s went through the train locking open all the inter-connecting doors between the carriages. He said this was to improve airflow. No idea if this is a new policy or just the guard taking it upon himself as I've not seen this practice before...

Didn't London Midland used to do something similar back in the day? I'm sure I remember them offering half price attraction tickets if purchased in conjunction with your rail tickets. Though as others have pointed out, they have more pressing things to worry about first. Given my past few...

Yes you are correct - it is the Equality Act they are relying on for non-public sector web sites. My biggest issue with WMT currently is that you are directed to the form, and if you're a screen reader user you hit a dead end. If you don't go looking for email addresses or other contact methods...

Thanks all for your contributions. I contacted WMT via email and they agreed to process my claim, so they have certainly met the "reasonable adjustments" criteria which is good. However, I'm still pressing them to sort out the accessibility of their delay repay scheme, as I am sure there will be...

Thanks for the details. I've already raised a case with their customer services team via their online form (which is accessible) so will await their reply. The LNR site itself isn't bad when it comes to accessibility - its just their third party operated delay repay form that is the issue. Fine...

Hi all, I'm a blind rail user who uses a screen reader to navigate web sites. I'm trying to make a delay repay claim with London Northwestern and am finding that their form is totally inaccessible to screen reader users. Just wondered if there are any fellow blind or partially sighted forum...

More disruption today - stuck on an LNR service at Nuneaton and been told all lines blocked between here and Stafford due to animals on the line near Rugely. Looks like all trains are being held in platforms at Stafford, Nuneaton or Rugby. No idea when we'll be moving.

Surely its a waste of electricity if components like compressors are still running all night as well, especially in our environmentally conscious age. I can't see why a stabled unit would need its air pressure maintained constantly when not in use unless I'm missing something obvious. Be...

A bit off topic, but I've always thought they should have done a full internal refit with 2+2 seating and made them the same as the 350/1s which would give LNR a nice big uniform fleet of fully compatible units across all 350 subclasses. I understand they already received the upgrades to 110mph...

As someone who lived in Kirkham for many years I can confirm the layout used to be 4-track. If you look at pictures of the old formation you can even see the space between the up and down fasts where the fast line island platform was planned but never built. (I don't know if they were known as...
