    Passengers fed up with overcrowded carriages on East Midlands Trains' Liverpool to Norwich line are sending tins of sardines to bosses in protest.

    Campaigners said they were packed "like sardines" into short trains, serving Nottingham, Manchester and Peterborough, which need to be bigger.

    Instead of the longer four carriages, trains often arrive with just two, causing overcrowding at peak times.

    East Midlands Trains said it was working to improve the service.
