A reasonably fit person such as myself struggled and failed to catch the train, departing as it did from the...

    Ordinary passengers using Heritage Railways as normal transport?

    Northern franchise awarded to Arriva.

    The Elsecar stops were taken out of most Sheffield -- Huddersfield trips quite a few years ago, round about the time I was planning a trip on the Elsecar Light Railway (I think the trains call at peak times and Sundays). So something to look forward to. Sent from my 4009X using Tapatalk
