Northern Failure

The chronicles of a daily Northern Fail commuter. Waiting for a Northern train 25 hours a day.

Let me be blunt.

Some people are thick as fuck and twice as nasty.

We have a pandemic which will kill thousands, someone you know will suffer a bereavement. Advice is do not socially mix, stay at home where possible.

Don't be a fuckwit, stay at home!

The announcer at Bolton Station always says "the late running @northernassist service on platform whatever". You really don't need to bother, it goes without saying #northernfail

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

@northernassist Nothing is easily accessible by your trains.

A decision on the future of Northern Rail is expected today. We've travelled the network and are live at stations in Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield 🚆🚆

@northernassist @sparksupportHQ @NHSuk Oh fuck off!

Us #northernfail lot should take a stand, refuse to pay @northernassist another penny until they sort themselves out. We could even have a catchy hashtag like #fareisntfair

@northernassist @northernBetrail @FailureNorthern as of this mornings commute I'm no longer paying for any travel on Northern operated services. Worked a treat this morning just jumped the barrier at piccadilly. It can't carry on the way its going. #freetravel #couldnotrunabath

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

@Phil50619522 @northernassist @northernBetrail Yep @Phil50619522, I've thought of doing the same myself. They don't deserve a penny. Hopefully they'll get the hint if enough people start doing this!

@YouGov Search for #northernfail and you'll see that this list is an absolute piss take.

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

If you ever worry that you're bad at your job, just think of the fucking idiot who works for @northernassist that decides to put 2 carriages on at rush hour every day #northernfail

[BBC Breakfast @BBCBreakfast]

We travelled with @northernassist and @TPExpressTrains.
This is our journey ⬇️

 Is your #commute any better? 💬

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

@northernassist are as useless as a nuns tits. 2 carriages for the busiest service of the day. Absolute tossers. #northernfail

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

"smoking and vaping are not allowed on this @northernassist service". Being able to breathe or move would be nice, never mind having a fucking fag! #northernfail

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

@hardhat_harry @northernassist @northern_resist @northernBetrail @northernfail @Y_FovargueMP Every single morning without fail!

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

Big announcement coming today on underperforming Northern Rail. One by one the government is taking the train operators under state control/ownership.

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

Any improvement from @northernassist in 2020?
COMMUTER SAYS NO #NorthernFail

[Northern Failure @FailureNorthern]

@northernassist you are brain dead, incompetent wankers #northernfail

And so the “lets show off all the presents to the world to show how wealthy i am” begins. 🙄

Nobody cares
