Cancelled services? Short-formed trains? Overcrowding on trains at peak travelling times on a Sunday when many people are travelling into the Peak District  on the Hope Valley line ?

Not only has Railwatch recently featured an article on Northern's troubles, RAIL magazine has also carried an article focussing on short-formed trains.
