I do not work on the Railways but use them a lot and yesterday Thursday my blood boiled seeing a Northern rail guard being abused by some low life person.
I got onto the 18.21 Macclesfield to Manchester service and there was a guy sat with feet on seat drinking from a can of larger and you could just tell he did not have a ticket he stood out from the crowd big time.
so the train guard and checked tickets just after leaving Macclesfield and he got to this chap and asked for his ticket and at 1st played like he didnt hear the guard so again the guard asked for his ticket and he gave the guard a ticket from Manchester to Congleton dated Wednesday so the guard said no he would like to see the right ticket and if not he would have to buy a ticket and then this is when this person kicked off and abused the guard with his gob telling the guard he was a F---ing fat **** and really being nasty to him to that the guard told him he was going to be kicked of at the next station unless he stopped his mouth and paid for his ticket.
so he kept on and then paid for he ticket but then said he got on a Macclesfield which he did not as i got on there and he was on the train sat down when i got on.
so as he kept mouthing of at the poor guard he told this person he would be met by police at Manchester but not sure if that happened as i got of before then and i tweeted northern about it but they did not seen that bothered which makes me think they dont really give a dam about there staff being abused like i had seen yesterday.
i really hope this guy was met by police at Manchester as no person should put up with the crap that came out of his gob.
The guard i though handled it very well and hope his bosses will see that but fear they wont.
