Bradford Interchange also currently has no double arrow logos outside after the main original totem sign was taken down when they redid the frontage at the beginning of 2025 and has yet to be replaced by a new totem so the station is currently anonymous from the main road. In fact there...

In which case why don’t they just make the coach F galley a permanent micro buffet point and sign it up as such?

Seats as mentioned earlier are subjective. I’ll reserve full judgement till I travel on them but I found the old seats ok and I’m 5.8, if the headrest area is slightly narrower it may increase the feeling of space too, the power points were an issue if sitting in an isle seat so that’s now...

From what I can see the refurbishment looks good. Certainly appreciate the better positioned power sockets and the seats look more comfy and spacious (proof will be in the real travelling experience). I’d have painted the vestibule roofs internally white to brighten the interiors at the boarding...

Because there’s been multiple fallen trees between Sowerby Bridge and Hebden Bridge ongoing since early evening, so there was both flooding and fallen trees affecting the Calder Valley not just floods.

1D73 1456 London King’s Cross to Bradford Intc worked right through with voyager 221143 today, this is notable as it’s the first time this service has run beyond Wakefield on a weekday (as opposed to sat and Sundays) in recent times as it has been terminating short at Wakefield Kirkgate for the...

Todays 0659 Bradford to Kings Cross I80107 cancelled at Doncaster due to a unit fault according to real-time trains. One fails somewhere every day now. Bright spot is 1023 from Bradford is 221143. They could do with both 221s running at the same time really reliability is so poor of the 180s

They’ve run right through to Bradford at weekends last few weeks

The majority of Bradford to Huddersfield shuttle services have been cancelled again today. This route also seems to be struggling with resources currently
