A passenger on a train to Edinburgh from Newcastle on Saturday morning has fumed after the service ended up ‘crammed’.
Hannah Colley arrived at Newcastle Central Station to find the platform already bustling before the train approached. After leaving at 9.11am, passengers heading to Edinburgh on the TransPennine Express (TPE) service were advised to avoid travelling or get a later train.
An announcement on the service said too many people were onboard, and some would have to be left behind. Edinburgh Live spoke to Hannah, who said: “They were shouting at people to move up the train, but everyone was already crammed in as much as possible.
