So tonight at about 21:00 I noticed a train that seemed to be in service - at least the first two carriages anyway. What struck me was it was a 6 car 158 - three sets of 2 cars.
I've not seen this before and was wondering what had happened for this to occur? As the train roller over the bridge by the bus station it started to slow and came to a stop out of my eye sight.
Another question is based upon an earlier sighting. A class 333 came from Neville Hill towards Leeds over the same bridge described earlier. Walking under the bridge from the ring road side to the opposite side the train had used a set of points so that it was still on my side. This got me wondering what the 333s did first thing on a morning when coming in vast numbers from Neville Hill - do they all come in like that on the opposite side to what you would expect? I understand the reasoning for this, just couldn't get my head around how it's all timetabled on a morning.
