    Four hour line block at March (Cambridgeshire)

    Yes - discussed in the 175 thread in the rolling stock section

    Class 175s to GWR

    Looks like (using real time trains) they have a train stuck behind it, should have been in Norwich by 16:20.

    22 coaches

    Equally, also couldn't resist looking. When you look at tomorrow, the Manchester service should form off the 08.24 arrival into Euston (platform 7 today). This was 390128 (the duplicate) which left at 08:40 to Edinburgh. This leaves 390153 to be the one running to Manchester, Birmingham and...

    NYMR news and updates.

    I would second that, I think it is just before the line curves around for Sleights. If you look at River crossings of the Esk on wikipedia, bridge 51 is referenced as the penultimate bridge prior to the rad bridge at Sleights.

    Terminating trains at platform 6 at Sheffield

    As I recall, the HST's came into platform 5 (and sometimes 8). In addition, 1 and 2 were used later in the day for those going onwards to Leeds.

    Ticket acceptance during disruption

    I have had both sides. Last year was travelling from Doncaster with east coast mainline disruption to change to TPE at Northallerton. Previous train was late (as well as mine) but guard had no problems with me travelling on the earlier train. Last week however, turned up for a London train at...

    The Hatfield Rail Crash aftermath

    Not sure on full impact, but yes, 91023 was involved in both this and Heck. Hence why on upgrades and renumbering it became 91132 as against 91123.

    S&C timetable in chaos this afternoon/evening 23/07/24

    I assume this freight service, went through Carlisle on time but then lost 150 minutes just after (I assume at the top of the S&C) https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:H16189/2024-07-23/detailed

    ECML disruption (08/07) inc. points failure at Doncaster & failed train near Huntingdon

    I would suspect crew being the issue. When you at the driver depot on RUK forums, only London sign via Cambridge and I would suspect by 18:00 and probably earlier the last London driver is heading Northbound to be able to return south. Where as going South there will be more options, hence the...

    ScotRail cancelling services July 2024

    I assume there is a further issue around the depot and crewing from either end given there are 3 northbound trains but only 2 southbound.

    ECML Major Disruption @ Outwood (27/06/2024)

    My wife as affected by this (seems to have been around 15:50 when it started) as she was returning from Leeds. As far as I am aware it was a vulnerable person. Looks like services may now be returning to normal.

    Trains forced to wait when clear paths are available

    Looking at this, you may have been unlucky at doncaster. Normally the Leeds train is from platform 8 and takes the avoiding line to pick up the fast line further south of doncaster. It was today on platform 1 and routed out a couple of minutes In front of you, normally the routing being the...

    Avanti Crewe depot

    In addition, what would happen to drivers getting trains to and from depots at Manchester, Liverpool and Wolverhampton. Taxi firms would be happy.

    Leeds london 26th may

    This is a good shout. Using Doncaster, most trains are showing nothing for next Sunday (including GC) - but Hull Trains seems to be OK. Selby might also be a suggestion if reasonable, prior to others joining at Doncaster then. Equally, works as well for later in the day.

    Train stopping short & doors been opened

    Yes - they are painted bright yellow. I commute to Leeds so knew it had been done, but never the reason why. I would assume Shipley (curvature) being one of the main reasons.

    Class 91 Wrong Way Round

    I would assume so, yes - DVT is normally at the south end and 91 at the north end

    Trivia: Level crossings with no pedestrian access while they're down

    Bentley (Yorks), in South Yorkshire is similar for this. The car park is on the Leeds bound side, so I impacts those heading to Doncaster and Sheffield. Only way across if level crossing, which can be held down for LNER trains and also freight. Plenty drive to Adwick as it can be quicker.
