Northern says it will pronounce Greater Manchester train station correctly in future after complaints
A Greater Manchester station is among those set to get their names pronounced correctly onboard trains after complaints from the public.
A bigger gaffe was calling the Euxton Balshaw Lane station - near Chorley - Euston, as in the London station. The correct pronuciation is Ex-ton Balshaw Lane. Tricia Williams, chief operating officer at Northern, said: “I’d like to thank everyone that has sent in their feedback so far. We manage 467 stations across our network and some of them are pronounced very differently to how they appear in writing.
