Passengers disgusted by train running with seats covered in vomit

A passenger travelling on a train from Crewe to north Wales said he was "alarmed" after seeing that a section of his carriage had been taped off after another passenger had vomited over the seats earlier that day. The man who asked not to be named said that the carriage "stank" throughout his journey.

The passenger told North Wales Live that his experience began on Friday evening as he boarded the 6.24pm train from Crewe, which changed at Chester on its way to Holyhead. He said the journey was made worse as the train only had two carriages, making the vomit odour inescapable.

The man claims he was "alarmed" that staff had not cleaned the vomit off the seats before other passengers boarded the train. He said the vomit had been left on the seats in the taped off area for the remaining services with passengers "inhaling the fumes of the vomit", which he described as an "unacceptable hazard".
