dear all
I hope that you serious enthusiasts will not be offended by the perhaps seemingly simple question that I ask.
I just thought that this was the place to get an answer from those in the know.
Today I missed a train because I had gotten onto the first class section of a train from Preston to manchester by mistake and...
I tried to get from that carriage to the standard class one internally and was met by the toilet the left in the 'passage way' but then by a metal solid looking wall with no means of opening!

So, I got out of the carriage and went to the next one down along the platform only to find the doors slammed shut and no way of being let in.
I tried frantically to press the door open button and so did an obliging man on the inside but to no avail!!!
A man looked out of the drivers part of the train, saw me there and away the train went!!!


Anyway, my pals dont believe me that I couldnt get from that carriage to the others from the inside.

Please please can you guys/girls confirm for me that this is the case sometimes?
