@northernassist Just looking across all the messages coming through, it seems some basic communication could reduce the amount of complaints you’re getting substantially. The train I’m currently on has had no comms about it changing, that it’s the right train, why it’s now delayed again etc
@northernassist Also sadly, the later train was cancelled on the platform and moved to another one with a single staff member trying to communicate what was going on to a very hot and bothered train. Felt sorry for the poor guy but at least he was doing something.
@northernassist morning - just wondering if fares have gone up recently? Disley to Manchester peak was £8 to £10 at the start of the year but now it’s £12-£14. Seems a big change.
@elonmusk@elonmusk where are we storing all these videos? I mean, repeated memes of you smoking are obviously beneficial to us all but isn’t this just flooding a data centre somewhere?
@FabrizioRomano@WeAreTheOverlap Strange how the interview didn’t go on to talk about his 0% win rate at Forest before getting sacked. He raised some good points and there’s definitely truth in it, but he’s not the incredible manager some make him out to be, whatever signings he makes.
@AlasdairGold It was only the other day he was saying that he WAS important. Like others, I hope there’s someone else lined up already (that isn’t going to decide to go to another club)
@northernassist Thanks for the quick reply - ok understood however if you can log this for your records I’d appreciate it. I’ll avoid this service altogether in future if stays as 2 carriages
@northernassist morning, I’m on the 08:14 from Disley to Manchester. Has this service changed to 2 carriages permanently? It’s a peak service and inevitably gets horribly overcrowded.
@northernassist 16:20 from Manchester to Buxton is just sat on platform. Now 12 mins late - no announcements or communication. Could someone not tell us what is happening on the train?
@Keir_Starmer The train company I use every week (@northernrailway) have put their £8.10 fare upto £13.40 in the last couple of weeks. This post explains a lot - they’ll now be able to freeze that and stick it in their pockets. Oh and on Wednesday the train was cancelled.
@KemiBadenoch Feels like all your posts are just criticism. I think you’d earn people’s trust more if you spent more time separating yourself from what’s happening and putting forward what you’d do to make things better. Simply saying “we have to…” carries no weight
@AlasdairGold Are you going to carry on with the Podcast? I’ve tried a couple of others but given up with them. Looked forward to you and Guesty each week - need a way to fill the hole
@RobGuesty I often want to read your stories but the https://t.co/fNDb7V9lhS website is so glitchy and riddled with adverts that it’s unreadable on mobile. More times than not, I give up
