A man who travelled to London from Manchester has hit out at rail services after having to spend £225 on a taxi to complete his journey.
Yousef Abda says a series of delays and cancellations left him "stranded" as he attempted to reach the capital to visit his girlfriend for the weekend on Friday, June 17.
The 33-year-old was advised along with "hundreds" of other passengers to board a train to Birmingham when he learned the 7.55pm Avanti West Coast service from Manchester Piccadilly to Euston had been delayed.
