Transpennine Express User Reviews
Smart train officer, neat environment, nice journey.
Engr Adeboye D.
Train was already cancelled but money was accepted for tickets
Donna F.
Didn't get time to decide. About 10 minutes into the journey a passenger advised that the train would be terminating at Preston. Why were we allowed to board a train not going to our final destination.
Anne A.
Train was cancelled and wasn’t informed until I arrived at the station. No alternatives or refunds were made available. Poor service
Gregory P.
