A few months ago I got one saying no alcohol would be allowed on board my train from &#8211; but it didn&#8217;t give me the journey date or details &#8211; and as I had 5 or 6 booked upcoming journeys in my account, I had to guess. For tomorrow, I&#8217;ve booked a ticket for my sister (who is partially sighted) from Huntingdon to Morpeth. But LNER are saying the train won&#8217;t actually stop in the station, but will instead put passengers down at Morpeth North Junction., which I believe is some 100 yards beyond the northern edge of the platform. At least the email has come to me, not direct to my sister, otherwise I could see considerable panic setting in as to how she would make her way back from the junction to the station itself, where I will of course be waiting. Meanwhile, David Horne has not responded to my emails of 10th February and 18th July about the proposed timetable changes for Morpeth (other than a brief acknowledgement of the first email). Might we suggest it would be a better use of time to focus on what customers and stakeholders are really asking about, rather than dreaming up more unhelpful and incorrect emails to send hapless customers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2347\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2347\" style=\"width: 481px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2347\" src=\"https:\/\/www.senrug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/LNER-email-300x266.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of an email saying it's not long now before your journey to Morpeth North Junction\" width=\"481\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.senrug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/LNER-email-300x266.png 300w, https:\/\/www.senrug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/LNER-email.png 636w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 481px) 100vw, 481px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2347\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Partial Screenshot of LNER Email<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Email&#8217;s from LNER are getting less and less helpful.
