The criteria for Northern Connect services to stop was a population of 80k+. Can confirm they won’t be stopping at Sowerby Bridge.

An hourly service from Halifax to Hull. Hull to Scarborough is also going hourly.

I already gave this a few weeks back.

3 per hour HGT to Leeds Hourly Hull to Scarb

No they haven’t. The service planned is Halifax to Hull.

The Leighton Buzzard Railway are currently raising funds for a 0.75 mile extension. The appeal is for 150k so seems quite achievable. The idea is to have more run in the countryside as the expansion of the town has reduced that.

Very little you can do with under 16’s. I usually give them a lecture and warnings about a repeat and let them travel to their destination. What else can you do? If a persistent offender then it would be escalated.

This sounds like a bit of a yarn. To emphasise this, a newly qualified junior doctor is on a minimum of £30k basic, which guard at ARN gets that?!

It sounds very similar to Alex’s mantra when he was at Northern Rail - ‘A railway the north can be proud of’ - look how that turned out. He strikes me as very ambitious and clearly has political designs.

Even less trains are being run on Saturday. Someone on here was saying they would run later - not the case at all. Starting later and finishing earlier on a few routes.

Correct. 7 trains to HB yesterday, obviously not ideal but also not no service. A lot of posts on this thread need fact checking.

Which line? Checked several and the last train is no later.

For anyone who may be interested these are running up both lines this Friday night and into Saturday morning. Will go from Doncaster to Harrogate then Harrogate to Skipton via Leeds.

Maybe it hasn't been completely loaded in yet.

If you look at the timings I imagine this is more to give Great Ayton (Population 5000) an evening peak service from Boro. Battersby being the end of token section probably just a logical turn around point.

What was RPI? CPI tends to be the lower of the two measures and doesn't reflect the true cost of living.

Quite a few inaccuracies in your post, firstly about drivers terms, and secondly about the rate of inflation.
