0700 cancelled again! @EastMidRailway sort this out, it is a regular occurrence. Prime time service into London from South Yorks and the next one not for another 34 mins. Time table not good enough, rolling stock provision not good enough, planning not good enough.

Thank you to Gavin the @LNER train manager on the 22:40 KX to Leeds service this evening for getting me north safely after tube strikes scuppered my journey. Great job, great service. Very much appreciated.

Shout out to the @EastMidRailway customer service guy on platform 5 at Sheffield Station this morning. Lovely chap doing a great job! 👏🏻

[Joanne Lewis @lewis2669]

Interesting match stats here. I don’t think it’s an issue relating to the scrum though, looks like line out and conversations contribute just as much time wasting in the game.

[Sam Larner @SamLStandsUp]

Thread: This gets flagged a lot to justify depowering the scrum. It's a great bit of data collection by the guys at the Times.

However, how concerned should we be by 18mins 28secs of the game being taken up by waiting for scrums?

On the 16:02 from St Pancras to Sheffield. Found my reserved seat. Looks like this. Not the only one. This is appalling service from @EastMidRailway.
Ticket price was £200+ not good enough from the industry

[Joanne Lewis @lewis2669]

Local people can you share/help? 🙏🏻

[Joanne Lewis @lewis2669]

@Modern_Railways @EastMidRailway They might be reliable but the passenger experience is dreadful. They are foul, grubby, threadbare, stained seats and carpets. £230+ for a return Sheff/St Pancras this week on this!
