Trains
A TRAIN arriving at Manchester Oxford Road station was the most overcrowded in England and Wales last autumn, new figures show.
There were twice as many passengers as seats when the TransPennine Express service pulled into the city centre station at 8.24am, Department for Transport (DfT) data shows.
Some 403 people squeezed into four carriages containing just 191 seats on the 4.22am service from Glasgow Central to Manchester Airport.
This is a load factor of 211% - higher than any other service.
