Last night I saw a mystery train passing through Driffield on the Yorkshire Coast line, I looked at my timetable at the time and it was definately between the Northern services, but I can't really remember when it was now :$.

Of the part of it I saw in the dark (missed the very front) it consisted of 2 coaches in darkness, 2 coaches with lights on, 2 coaches in darkness and a class 47 bringing up the rear.

Has anyone got any idea what was going on?!

Thanks

Could it be the same special that breezed through Castleford at about 17:00 - a set of Mk2s with "Pride of Cumbria" at the front and "Pride of Carlisle" on the back. No sign what it was, but all the few passengers looked very (non-) enthusiastic about being dragged through the industrial Yorkshire landscape.
