    Platform Edge Sitting

    How would tapping him on the shoulder and saying "Excuse me Sir" not have been a far more sensible option?

    Northern issue penalty fares after ticket office left unmanned

    I've had a few fun times with Barnsley refusing to sell certain tickets; most recent was on a strike day when the lady (don't know who she actually was, not one of the usual staff and didn't have Northern uniform in so guess a manager/office staff) point blank refused to sell me a ticket to...

    HS2 and Liverpool

    So you'd rather a separate project for each reason then? I'm sure we can guess which would cause less disruption and cost the least.

    Why are West Yorkshire Metro contradicting the National Conditions of Travel

    I've personally never had any issues using a WYMetro Dayrover for non-stopping splits. As @some bloke says the T&Cs for the Dayrover don't prevent non-stopping splits and don't refer to the Cross-boundary leaflet at all.

    LNER confirm delay repay policy for split tickets on cross-TOC journeys

    They seem to be applying this to non-split tickets as well, currently battling to get the correct amount of delay repay paid on a rover ticket, they only want to pay out for the VTEC portion of the journey.

    New Barnsley footbridge

    It's pedestrian risk mainly, people always trying to beat the barriers or deliberately misusing the crossing, only saw a guy today run across the tracks after the barriers had started to come down.

    New Barnsley footbridge

    They're not, the current LC was used for the multistory carpark which is now closed prior to being demolished as well as service access for the markets which as part of the Glassworks redevelopment are being moved.

    Northern Connect - original plans vs. what actually happened

    Whoops I meant Nottingham, got distracted looking at all the other service combinations.

    Northern Connect - original plans vs. what actually happened

    The oldest archived copy on the way back machine is from October 2016 and that list doesn't include Bradford for the Lincoln services so it's not a recent change if its a change at all, might just be an omission that's always been there.

    Sheffield/Rotherham Tram-Train update

    Presumably compromise in negotiating the Tinsley Viaduct, the link road and the Don while keeping the Meadowhall South tram stop on the tram train route.

    Schoolboys left injured after playing near rail line to sue over 'psychological trauma'

    Seems a similar situation to the previous time when EWS/DBC were suscessfully prosecuted by the HSE for failing to prevent trespass access to a rail yard.

    Reissuing of date boxes for Rovers

    I've had no issues getting day rovers issued on PRT stock, never tried to (or wanted to! ) get a multiday rover issued on it.
