Rather than trying to cobble a route together as close to the regular route as possible, the easiest option in many cases would be to just go via London, GWR and then either EMR or LNER to Yorkshire and the north east

They are new, reinstating maps that they used to do years ago. I don’t think a full set has been created as yet. Lancashire is interesting where due to a combination of operators doing timetables and the council doing them for their tendered routes, there are printed timetables available for...

Yes and for some reason that’s the angle the BBC have gone with Not the actual franchise award but the fact that some random at a made up organisation doesn’t like First
