RAIL travellers have given their views on their services.
Watchdog group Passenger Voice has revealed the results of a customer satisfaction survey of services around the country.
The National Passenger Survey, conducted last autumn, included views on TransPennine Express and Northern Rail, which both operate trains through Huddersfield.
Anthony Smith, chief executive of Passenger Focus, said that, overall, rail users were happy with services and there had been improvements.
He added: "Passengers have recorded the highest level of satisfaction since the survey was launched eight years ago.
"Things are moving in the right direction. But there are still big areas for improvement, not least in value for money."
Overall, 88% of passengers said they were satisfied with the Trans- Pennine service, which runs express trains from Liverpool and Manchester to York, Hull and the North-East through Huddersfield.
