ALT A train speeds through a scenic countryside landscape with rolling hills and fields. The image includes a sign saying "Good morning" and "We're here to help," featuring waving hand emojis. The Northern Rail logo is visible on the train.
We know that some passengers have not received the service they deserve over recent weeks, and we would like to say sorry.
Disruptive autumn conditions have followed a longer, warmer summer and recent storms, with leaves falling faster over a shorter period. This has produced slippery rails and signalling issues.
We are working to restore services and improve performance as quickly as possible.
Once more, we would like to apologise to everyone affected by the disruption.
Hear more from Sam, our operations director, about the ongoing disruption to some routes 🎥⬇️
Remember that if you have been delayed by 15 minutes or more you may be eligible for compensation, or if you were unable to travel due to disruption you can obtain a refund: help.northernrailway.co.uk/s…
