THE poor train services, delays and overcrowding in the north have affected me badly this year in my business and personal life, and the latest rail fare increase is wholly unfair in asking me to pay more for what are already atrocious rail services.

There is obviously a huge lack of much needed investment in the network.

I demand our local MP stand up for more funding for trains in the north, and they should be putting pressure on the Government in Westminster.
