Oh deer !

1E22 Aberdeen Edinburgh to King's Cross appears to be moving slowly between Darlington and Northallerton (the only thing doing so) according to OTT but is formed of an 801 according to RTT so would have thought it's on OLE. 9G18 was stuck behind A Lumo and an LNER north of Darlo and is being sent back to Durham by the looks of things.
As I type, 5P23 has been given the road from the South Passenger Loop, so perhaps the blockage is beginning to clear.

That's impossible unless there's been a swap somewhere.

1E22 is Edinburgh to King's Cross, my mistake. Apologies, here's the RTT link https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:G23214/2023-08-04/detailed

On 1S26 KGX to EDB delayed on York. Announcement suggests we will be moving soon.

 

[800001]

OHL is turned off between Aycliffe and Hutton Bonville.

Lines have reopened to diesel at 20mph, with down service using the down passenger loop.
LNER 801s will use their single generator unit.

Believed to be a bond wire which has come down, catenary wires believed to be intact.

 

[oldchap]

Diesel fired up. Away we go again.
