Travellers were once again issued with a 'do not travel' warning by the operator on Sunday (October 27)

Andy Burnham has slammed Northern again over an 'embarrassing' travel warning issued by the operator. Travellers were urged not to travel on various routes on Sunday over the possibility of last minute cancellations.

It comes just days after Mr Burnham slammed the rail operator as a 'part-time rail service', saying its performance was 'falling far short of what passengers in Greater Manchester and the wider north deserve'. Last week, in a series of social media posts, Mr Burnham said he wanted an 'urgent plan' to be put in place and said the current 'level of service' on Northern 'can’t continue'.

Speaking previously to the Manchester Evening News, Mr Burnham added: "This level of service cannot continue. Northern's performance is falling far short of what passengers in Greater Manchester and the wider north deserve. "In the longer term, this model will build a transport system that works for the north and supports our ambitions for growth and prosperity."
