Occasions that I know of (most likely not all of them!) where Hull Trains ran to St Pancras are:

Can confirm those were a proper MML run:

IIRC, for a few days after the Hatfield colliery slip, they diverted via Snaith and Knottingley to get to Doncaster.

I'm fairly certain that the first weekend after the land slip they ran Hull - Goole - Wakefield (RM) - Doncaster - MML - St Pancras

In fact I recall being at Kirkgate alongside another 180 swapping route conductors as even they didn't each sign all of the diversion!

The above surely has to take the record for the most part of a service being diverted.
