Northern Rail are making travelling with your dog easier by introducing 'pup friendly' provisions for customers.

As summer is coming, the train operator will be introducing dog watering stations at 138 of their stations. 

Mark Powles, customer & commercial director at Northern said: "Our customers are at the heart of everything we do – whether they are human or canine.  

"Dogs are welcome on our services are we want to provide the best journey possible for everyone."

 The improvements come as part of Northern’s wider programme of transformation across the rail network.  

Northern’s campaign – A Better Way to Go - highlights the work being done by the train operator to improve every step of the customer journey. 

Mark added: "Our A Better Way to Go campaign demonstrates the hard work that has taken place as we continue to transform rail travel in the north, and I’d like to thank everyone who has been involved."
