Glad to see Northern have finally closed off access to the two major fare avoiding loopholes at Manchester Victoria now they need to sort the Major Ones at my two big local stations Wigan Wallgate (Lift Exit) and Northwestern (BTP Entrance)

Also A few Manchester-Wigan Turnbacks had double or triple guards on them today any reason for this? One guard even Checked tickets between Crescent and Central whilst the other did the doors which has been unheard of since the days of FNW.

Last one can anyone give me the id of the Last Kirkby train tonight it was a 142 with Bench Seating and had Part of its roof falling from the ceiling in the DMS? was a bit of a dangerous environment tbh.

Also Northern have finally sorted the Lighting out at Daisy Hill it actually works now

Northern Rail have several methods to contact them to report this issue.

Depending on what time this occurred and what type of unit, I may well have been one of the guards. On my interim assessment.

The BTP entrance at NorthWestern could be closed by anyone - the Police, Virgin, Northern, passing taxi drivers with a mischievous streak - but nobody does it.
