There is an automated announcement with the same really annoying woman's voice that keeps you up to date with delays. Only in the bigger stations mind, but it does the job.
Something along the lines of:
"We're sorry but the [17:15 service] to [Manchester Oxford Road] has been delayed by approximately [22 minutes]. [First Transpennine] apologies for any inconvenience this may cause"
Basically the same announcement with the bits in brackets added. Makes you harbour homicidal feelings towards this woman.
