Episode 1: Coping with coronavirus

Welcome to the first Proud to be Northern podcast from UK train operator Northern. In this episode host Glyn Hellam talks to regional directors Steve Hopkinson and Chris Jackson, and head of train presentation Jo Simmons about the challenges of running a railway during the coronavirus pandemic. We discuss who the services are for, how we keep them running, how we keep trains clean and then take a look in the crystal ball to see where things might end up in coming weeks and months. You can find out more about Northern at our website or our special coronavirus microsite. You can also follow us on Twitter @northernassist. Thanks for giving us a listen - if you enjoyed the pod give us a glowing review and a nice rating. Hopefully we'll be back soon with episode two.
