Pretty chaotic at Leeds tonight, various platforms blocked off and poor information.

I got away 8 mins late on the 2048 to Sheffield which was being continuously announced as leaving from 11B even though that was one of the platforms which was closed. We actually departed from 5C and there are very few people on board, so I suspect many missed it having not heard the brief announcement in the midst of all the auto waffle.

2011 to Bristol, which was at the centre of the incident, has now seemingly left. Incident obviously serious with armed police involved, but I’m not sure whether I can post more details in line with forum policy.

A BB gun mistaken for a real firearm, obviously you can't be too careful but that was why the armed police were present.
