TPE passengers unhappy about toilets and standard of facilities

Thanks to KWVR45 for simply being honest. That kind of thing earns my respect.

The whole toilet situation sounds a mess, partly down to inconsidderate Joh Public but some technical, design and maintainance failings in the mix 2.

How long did you wait? Both Northern services are timetabled ~5 minutes before the TPEs (stupid eh). I can understand why you'd do that but it only works if getting off the :46 Northern from Hud to swap for the :50 TPE it's inevitably holding up.

As it happened, my Northern was about 5 mins after the TPE, so didn't get to use the station bar on this occasion. There was a notable 45 min wait at Huddersfield for the next Northern (my train had to stop at Dewsbury and a TPE had been cancelled, to complicate matters).
