    £100million investment of South Humberside mainline.

    I went down to Pasture Street box on Christmas Eve morning (around 8am) to take some photos, and there was already a demolition vehicle parked up behind it .

    1B69 07:26 Cleethorpes to Manchester Airport 21 Dec 2015

    It will be 185111, which was stabled at Cleethorpes this afternoon (seen by myself), only one 185 currently stables at Cleethorpes from Saturday evening to Monday morning (which forms the 0726 on Monday). The 0826 arrival is formed from a unit which stables overnight at Barnetby (which should...

    Worst lines for cancellations

    Well sort of, the 0700 was cancelled because the 0529 ex Doncaster was very late. The 0600 was cancelled because there was no unit at Cleethorpes to form it after the previous days unit ran off somewhere but as you say nothing on RTT (which isn't a first). --- old post above --- --- new post...

    Worst lines for cancellations

    I don't know what happened to the Barton unit yesterday after it got 'stranded' on the Barton side of the trespass incident. Today, the first service (0600 ex Cleethorpes and return to Grimsby) was cancelled because there was no unit at Cleethorpes to form it (because of yesterdays trespass)...

    Still reported as up there by Grimsby Telegraph, so thats about 11 hours he's been up there (and the road and railway line have been closed). It does look like the Barton unit is stuck on the other side of the incident? http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/Y30188/2015/11/19/advanced And an...

    He means after 9am, there is/was a man stood on a railway bridge (that runs over a road) attempting to jump off. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/search/advanced/GMB/2015/11/19/0000-2359?stp=WVS&show=all&order=wtt

    Worst lines for cancellations

    TPE operate the Barton line because other than the Saturdays only Brigg line service Northern Rail do not have any services that run down to Grimsby/Cleethorpes (the closet they get otherwise is Scunthorpe or Lincoln). So Northern provide the rolling stock (a 153) and TPE provide the crew from...

    It probably was 31452, as the others (except 31461*) will actually be on the RTC and are stored. However, 31452 is dark green, see this photo which is not mine...

    Well done TPE. 1054 Man Airport-Cleethorpes 1/11

    I'm not familiar with Scunthorpe, although sectional appendix has them at very similar lengths. Grimsby Town Platform 1 (towards Cleethorpes) is shown as 138.5m and Platform 2 (towards Doncaster) is shown as 137.5m. Scunthorpe up platform (towards Cleethorpes?) is shown as 140m, and down...

    Well done TPE. 1054 Man Airport-Cleethorpes 1/11

    I did go through the sectional appendix a few months back to see which platforms between Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe* are long enough for 2x185s. The platforms at Grimsby Town are slightly too short, whilst those at Habrough and Barnetby are much shorter. Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe are ok for a...

    I don't ever recall the 1526 being formed of 2x170s, prior to the loss of the 5 170s the 1226 and 1326 ex Cleethorpes used to be formed of 2x170s.
