In November 2023, I booked and traveled first class return from Newcastle to Kings Cross with my grandson as a treat after my wife's passing. Our trip was delayed due to an incident on the tracks. By the time we returned to our carriage, our reserved seats were taken. I managed to find a seat for my grandson, but I had to stand the entire way back. Despite staff seeing my disability, no assistance was offered. By the time we reached Newcastle, I was in severe pain, which lasted for days. Based on reports about the treatment of disabled customers, I feel like we are just seen as a problem.
