Does anyone know why my train from Shipley (10:08 to Skipton) is delayed? The conductor has announced an operational incident is a reason for the delay?
Can anyone shed anymore light?
Does anyone know what is going on with the wires between Shipley and Leeds? Nothing is moving and people are threatening to go down on the line to get off.
why have Northern started stacking trains on platforms one and two at Forster Square? The extra walk down the platform for the train means you are exposed to the elements like today.
There's a group of feral children currently running and playing on the line between Leeds and Bramley holding up trains. I don't know how the drivers stay so calm in these situations. Train advances 30 ft and then they move back on the line.
Hopefully, transport police come and get them.
Are these getting refurbished? There's a lot of tired ones around including at least two where the electronic destination blind doesn't work, so the drivers have to stick a piece of A4 paper on the front window to let passengers know which train it is and on one of the PA intercom doesn't work...
Will the new platform at the Western end be enough? Earlier today I was in Leeds attempting to get home when chaos ensued. Firstly, my train on platform 2c was minutes away from departure when my train was blocked by a train in front which didn't have a platform available to come in to, so took...
I'm away with the wife but my brother just called to say he is on the 21.43 Bradford to Leeds and its only a class 153 and its delayed due to too many people trying to get on it.
Why would Northern even think a 153 is suitable for a journey between two of the biggest cities in the North.
Are...
Can anyone advise and help which is the quickest and cheapest way to do this journey please as my wife's sister has recently died and we need to attend the funeral next Thursday.
How Northern rail are allowed to run a two carriage pacer on the Leeds to Manchester Victoria via Bradford route is absolutely disgraceful. The train was late due to passengers crush loading onto it at Leeds and then left passengers behind at New Pudsey and Bradford. Absolutely disgraceful how...
So me and the wife bought two tickets, but two different types from Bradford to Blackpool North with our Two Together Railcard.
We now can’t go on the day we bought the tickets for, but can go a few days later but Northern are refusing to refund or change the date of the tickets. I have no...
Just watched this
I never knew a train driver had to understand so many different signals and all of them on the York-Hull-Leeds-Huddersfield-Manchester line.
Bridlington will have to be up there with five platforms culled.
But does anywhere beat Bradford Exchange? Ten platforms down to four , so a loss of six.
Just been to the Ilkley book fair and so far I’ve seen numerous diesels running under the wires.
Travelled on a 144 and back on a 150, felt like I wasn’t retired and had gone back in time 30years.
I take it the 333 units are having problems?
What is this new ticket that Northern are selling?
Offpeak short return and Anytime short return on the ticket machine was £2 and £4 more than the Anytime day return.
Why does the railway like to complicate things.
Why is there no direct trains to Blackpool North from Leeds or Bradford anymore?
It seems madness that by changing at Preston to catch the stopper, journeys are now nearly 40 to 50 minutes longer.
Very frustrating and seems to be putting people off judging by the recent loading on the train.
