@northernassist There are always only 2 carriages on this stopping service though, which are always full by Hag Fold, but there’s always 4 carriages on the earlier service which misses Hag Fold and a number of other stations. It’s a joke! Send a rep out tomorrow, see what it’s like for us!

[Matt Shaw @Trombone_Shaw]

@northernassist I’m furious; I’ve been turned away by the conductor from getting on the 0754 train from Hag Fold to Manchester because it’s once again too full. Are you going to contact my boss & explain why I’m once again late because of your abhorrent ability to run a service?!

@AldiUK Surely in a time of increased aims for recycling, and heightened outrage about the plastic problem in the worlds oceans, shouldn’t you be encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bottles instead of printing ‘do not reuse bottles or closures’ on the label?

@northernassist Not impressed with your staff at Manchester Victoria tonight. QR code on ticket wouldn’t open barrier, and as member of staff took 5 minutes to eventually assist/let me through, I missed my train, being told by platform staff that I should’ve been quicker!!

[Matt Shaw @Trombone_Shaw]

@northernassist What’s the point of only putting on a 2 carriage service for rush hour from Wigan to Manc., when it’s already full and still has 7 stops to take passengers on?! It’s -4 this morning and we’ve been told to wait for the next one at 8:25...work starts at 9! #nothappy

@lornabancroft I’m the conductor of the band that Dave Lunt plays cornet for, and even though he didn’t secure a date, we’re proud of him & think he’s pretty awesome - we have a concert on Sunday afternoon, would you be interested in coming and seeing Dave do what he does best?

[Matt Shaw @Trombone_Shaw]

@Dominos_UK I don’t think this is how my order should have arrived tonight...over 30mins to be delivered, then I open the box to this mess, with the wrong sauce as well! I’m seriously not impressed at all
