This is due to them receiving verbal and physical abuse by drunken passengers returning to mainly Runcorn and Winsford stations after a full days drinking in Liverpool.

Im surprised that London Midland has not decided to bring in security for these last services to Birmingham New Street.

A replacement coach service would take an eternity to do the entire route though but if that's how they have to cover it then that's how they do it .

These Guards do not come into work to be verbally abused and spat upon , they come into to do a job , would you put up with that ? I know for one I wouldn't .
