@NintendoMetro YesI did. Sold it around 1997 and regretted it ever since, would be worth a packet now.

@ardnin_ And the adapters get so hot, can't be doing any good. If phone manufacturers insist on no 3.5mm jack, they should have 2 x USB-C ports.

@Fozzwafc @northernassist Probably not, last time they said the extra carriages were all in repair. Calder linr services cut from 4 trains (10 carriages total) per hour to 1 train (2 carriages). And @northernassist claimed all available carriages were out.

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@northernassist @BeeNetwork Sorry but this is hard to believe. A peak hour on the Calder Valley usually has around 10 carriages across 4 services. And you can only find 2 working carriages, and still charge peak fare?

Also, my question still remains if train fares are accepted on Mamchester trams today?

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@northernassist @northernassist Some more feedback: if I provide my from/to stations, it shows something more useful, but the "Show later trains" button is disabled. So I will come back in a few hours, or use the app, or the TrainLine instead.

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@northernassist Looking at your live updates page for Leeds-Manchester, what order are you sorting these trains in? Should I read through all 20+ entries until I find the time I need? https://t.co/ofyk9z9QPQ

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@northernassist Thank you, that would be great.

@FirstWestYorks Dear @FirstWestYorks, what was the outcome of the public consultation on this, please? What details did you change in response?

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@FirstWestYorks Five adults to travel 2 ways at weekend is now £6 (group ticket on app). Soon it will be £20 (10 singles). How are you keeping bus travel affordable?

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@FirstWestYorks Why are you retiring the weekend day group ticket? That was the only saving grace making me use you. You keep cutting services in Todmorden and putting prices up. Back to the car it is, then.

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@FirstWestYorks Bradford Interchange: closed for buses, trains or both?

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@moonlit_market @bekharsky Hi @moonlit_market, your store page says “seamless” Bluetooth connectivity for the iPod Classic Connect. Can you please confirm that you have only implemented the audio and not the play control features of Bluetooth? That seems misleading and incomplete.

This game has you guessing the hex code of a colour. It’s tough!

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@FirstWestYorks Can we expect to see the Burnley to Rochdale via Todmorden 589 bus return as a result of your fares increasing? Back to the car it is.

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@Asaki74154136 @infidelity_nes …or maybe the Satellaview graphics? That would be sweet.

@MicrosoftTeams @JankeSkanke I agrée using a portion of a screen is great when teaching with Zoom. Curious @MicrosoftTeams why you ask for comments here then tell people to complete a form. Can’t you do that, why do we have to work twice? Your approach is generating then losing feedback.

[Duck Whistle @DuckWhistle]

@northernassist Are we still getting 2-car peak services through Manchester Victoria most days? Eg Wigan to Leeds. We pay a premium to cross the county boundary and don’t even get a seat to show for it, if we fit on at all.

@MarioBrothBlog @OmniRarab Is it one of these companies? https://t.co/Aog0LQhDvl

@sabremaps Four Banks crossroad in Chorlton is busy enough, thankfully they never added a motorway junction to it!
