I worked this train today and was steady going up on the 07:47 but the return working the 10:58 Carlisle to Leeds was probably around 80% of seats taken on a 4 car on the core Appleby to Settle section with a pretty even mix of £1.50 sale tickets, advance tickets and normal walk up tickets

Well thats definitely an upgrade from the booked 4 car 150

It the departure time of where you board so you're fine for boarding a train at Leeds at 15:58 but if you were to board the same train at the next station at 16:06 it wouldn't be allowed, of course the peak restrictions are only Monday to Friday

The engineering possession was kept on as it had been all night which included Blea Moor so Ribblehead turnbacks weren't available initially. It was looked at shortening the possession back to allow Blea Moor to be available and also they looked at someone to open Garsdale box up as its locked...

Travelling next week Euston to F William, are we able to sit in the seated coach when we get up or have we to stay in our cabin?

The express is now 'The Yorkshire Flyer' and will officially be launched tomorrow (Monday 9th Feb) The departure boards at Leeds list the name too

Currently running on time as at 12:00

The press the close button is a myth, just do it like any other door test except by the time you get to the front the back doors will have auto closed. Open, close, open, check cross feed and carry on, and close from the other end of the train

It's currently running on time

Northern don't sign Beal, only upto the crossover at Belford

The first northbound was running behind the slightly delayed 0747 Leeds to Carlisle and caught it up a couple of times in the long signal sections

It's a Porterbrook site so was having life prolonging works (again) it went by road

016 is in the corner at Skipton Broughton Road where they've been doing the upgrades

Had 012 on the Doncaster Line today and was nice to hear the original announcements

Fair dos, put 2 and 2 together and made 5
