The photo in question looks to be at Low Moor station, in which case I can confirm the incident has been fully investigated and action has been taken. It would be completely inappropriate to discuss on a public forum what action has been taken but in the circumstances it was reasonable...

Yes. Lying to them is a very bad idea.

And your source for that is...?

Plus CrossCountry at Leeds and Grand Central at Bradford.

How can you vote in favour of industrial action but against the unions actioning it?? That's simply how the ballot works - do you support action short of a strike? do you support strike action?

The whole section of line from the station to the entrance to Bramhope Tunnel has flooded at various points over recent years. I'm not sure there's really a better location. The flash floods on Monday were caused by a fairly spectacular downpour and even if it hadn't flooded at the station the...

It's like groundhog day on here. This has probably come up 20 times in the last 100 pages. In 99% of cases the battery will outlast the car and go onto a second life as energy storage. If there is a fault with the battery it will often be a single cell, not the entire thing, which can be...

Surely you can see the contradictions in these statements? You bought the ticket 20 mins before the train, but it went through right as you boarded. If you wanted to PM a screenshot of the ticket without the blacking out I could check precisely what time it says the ticket was purchased, which...

158756 was stabled overnight in Bradford, it went to Leeds empty at 08.04 to begin booked Leeds-Huddersfield work which it did all day. At no other point was there a 158 3 car stabled at Bradford, spare or otherwise. The train you were complaining about was short formed from Neville Hill that...

What time, exactly, did the ticket purchase go through according to your purchase confirmation email?

And 19x/331s.

Engineering experience is of no relevance to a Conductor role, I wouldn't worry about trying to gain experience there.

GWR basically settle almost everything. They will probably write to you and ask for your explanation of events but if you engage with them they'll probably settle for the full fare due plus around £100-150 in admin fees.

If you have evaded a few thousand pounds worth of fares, including short tickets and fraudulent refunds then you should strongly consider taking professional legal advice.

Not necessarily, we would need to see what was issued.
