ECML blocked Doncaster

[Narrowgauge725]

There was me hoping for a clean run I wondered why we lost time before setting off from York but apparently all lines blocked. Any ideas what has happened? Seems there are a few of us the queue.

Trains seem to be moving in the Leeds direction albeit slowly.

Seems Platform 3 is blocked if trains are being sent on the Up line into Platform 4. Things are on the move now, your train (Assuming 1Y90) should be next?

1E21 so running 50 mins late only consolation is we are going down a day early due to the Kings Cross blockade tomorrow so half price trip unless we get delayed again.

Could be interesting the automatic delay repay is saying 50% but we arrived 2047.5 mins according to realtrains which came up before we reached the platform but the clock ticked over 2048 on the train before it stopped.

So auto delay repay is showing 50% realtrains showed 60 mins 2047.25 and clock ticked over to 2048 before we stopped.

Doncaster railway station a s*ic*de hot spot, 5 in 5 weeks.
Is this event number 6?
A trespasser escorted to safety a euphemism for "reported and trains halted" before it happened?

Thats often the case, yes, although there was some conflicting info about this particular incident. Usually if an incident initially reported as tresspass turns into something worse, signs are there in the public data systems (eg much blunter messages on certain websites), a particular train terminated early and initially delayed worse than others in the area, and/or via local news reporting or even via twitter etc reports from people on the train. In this case I didnt see the usual blunt messages in the data, but there was a worrying early termination at Doncaster of a particular train, and a report from one person on the train that suggested they were told of a much bleaker outcome. Press reporting so far suffered from a lack of subsequent updates, I dont think they got any official confirmation before they stopped updating their initial story.

1E21 showing as arrived at 20:46 on Darwin, which is what LNER is basing the calculation off of. The train was also scheduled to arrive at 19:49, not 19:47 (the latter is the WTT arrival time).
