FTPE may be overcorwded, but at least their 18:07 service from Manchester Piccadillt has 6 cars, as opposed to the 2-cars usually ran from EMT at 17:37. The amount of times I've had to wait is aweful, and ive always had enough time to go to the ticket office at Pic and get a complaints form...

The only time i've ever been on a totally wedged FTPE has been after a Newcastle game heading away from Newcastle, and I can't ever recall seeing one passing through Sheffield that has been packed.
