I own my own computer business so I enjoy writing the bulk of my articles on things related to the computer industry. Because I have access to a large number of components I am able to make sensible, reasoned opinions of most products.

Although I live in the Midlands and my regional rail operator is Central Trains, I travel on loads of Northern Spirit trains because im in Yorkshire a lot. I find myself using Northern Spirit between Sheffield sometimes and onto Wakefield and Pontefract.
For starters what can I say about punctuality? Well on the whole apart from the once when it was 15 mins late, I find them to always leave the station within 3 or 4 minutes of the time they should do although most of the time they are pretty punctual.
Right now for the staff, well all I can say is that they have all been friendly and polite and so I have had no problems there.
Now for the condition of the trains. Well this is a slight failing point for Northern Spirit. My local operator, Central Trains have invested a fair amount in new trains and now have a decent amount of new trains operating. I havent seen any new Northern Spirit trains, in fact they are pretty old from what I have travelled on and seen. Although they are always clean inside I cant help but think they are a bit rickety. I dont know if it is just the Wakefield - Pontefract route that I travel on most, that is like this or if its the general situation with Northern spirit. However the trains do there job and as I said before are reasonably punctual so there well worth travelling on.
