    Bradford: Would it benefit from having one central station?

    I'm not sure that would be much quicker than using the service bus, WRC has decent bus links from Leeds, Morley, Batley and Dewsbury. The point about service patterns is a good one and might be one reason WRC does not have its own station, giving the Northern services an extra calling point may...

    Yes since the 18th Nov free parking in Leeds on Sunday has gone by the bye, although £2 is still pretty reasonable

    London North Eastern Railway (LNER) First Class service

    Yes I think you are more or less bang on with this post, it sadly can be the staff sometimes, some just seem to hate the passengers and begrudge giving stuff away. There is certainly no ruling that passengers cant have more juice or toast, and I have never worked a train which has run out of...

    Absurd fares pricing

    However if you try and book the more expensive fare, a message comes up warning you that there is a cheaper fare for your journey, so not that shocking.

    Leeds pick up point

    Is there a worse pick up point at any other UK rail station? Probably,but something needs to be done at Leeds, it's causing tailbacks and congestion especially on Fridays and Sundays. Its too small and not fit for purpose.The tailbacks can go back down Whitehall Road a good 1/3 of a mile at...

    Please don't walk through first class

    Print @ Home Tickets

    If I was a betting man I reckon you will be fine. It might be that at that time on a Saturday there may be a few well oiled passengers on board so the guard will have no interest in coming through the train. If he/she does, if your new card has a start date on it of this month you could explain...

    Good and bad bus stations.

    Castleford bus station still looks the same as it did in the mid 80s, but then again so does the rest of Castleford.

    East Coast Documentary

    I would't hold my breath on it getting much better, 10 hours (or whatever it is minus adverts is far too much). I'm only going to give it go because I work for them. I lost interest in the FGW one early on.

    Gateline staff - Leeds station.

    OK, thanks for the info, I guess if they are a not for profit bus company that would make sense. OK fair enough 2-3 a week is a lot if your buying them from station ticket offices, the point in having the special stock does seem questionable then.
