    Conductor punched at Blackpool South Wed 14 Jan

    Anyone know what going on here? Actual opening hours don't match advertised and appear not to for over a year... Is there any mechanism to enforce ticket office opening hours/ performance?

    Fatality at Kidsgrove 22/09/14

    I was on preston park train. Driver apologised for situation.. Weird things people say when in shock. Driver was rescued very quickly by a colleague and walked down platform. Poor guy. Grim to say the least.
