TransPennine Express have cancelled 29 trains and altered 18 more due to "higher than normal" sickness levels.
The train company were forced to cancel and alter a number of services due to the impact of higher-than-normal sickness levels and a training backlog as a direct result of covid. The team at the rail provider have announced they will be cancelling a total of 29 trains on Friday, December 9 across a number of different lines.
A spokesperson for the company said: "Usually, we will make these changes the day before to give customers as much notice as possible. In some cases, we will try to do this several days before if there is a significant change to the normal timetable.

"Some TPE services may still face ‘on-the-day’ challenges, resulting in short-notice cancellations or service amendments made on a day-to-day basis. We are sorry for any disruption that this may cause to journeys in the coming days and ask you to allow additional time for travel and to check carefully – up to the last minute – for any changes to train times."
