Petition details
Northern rail service is currently extremely poor. Most services arevery infrequent: even many urban commuter services only see an hourlyservice or less, making it unattractive to many potential users, andmany stations lack Sunday services at all; they use some of thecountry's oldest rolling stock, and two-car pacer trains which weredesigned for use on quiet rural branch lines are instead used on busyurban services; Cancellations and delays are frequent.
Ibelieve that were this standard of service being operated anywhere nearLondon then it would have been stopped a long time ago, with their newtrains and frequent services.
