The 225's have been working to Skipton for some time!I doubt they will go to Skipton either as certain coaches have to be locked out for Skipton working as I recall reading somewhere on this board previously.

One coach currently has to be locked out for a rake of mark 4s to go to Skipton. However, as the plan is for two coaches to be knocked out of each set, that will cease to be a requirement.I doubt they will go to Skipton either as certain coaches have to be locked out for Skipton working as I recall reading somewhere on this board previously.
Mark 4s used to call at Shipley when going from Skipton towards Leeds (well, until an Azuma took over that working earlier this year). The call was pick-up-only anyway, and I believe operated under local door operation.One coach currently has to be locked out for a rake of mark 4s to go to Skipton.

At present a set of mark 4s is unable to call at Shipley when going to/from Skipton. Does that restriction also apply to a 5 coach 80x? If not, are they planned to call at Shipley on Skiptons? If so, that could preclude hauled sets going there.
Nothing can be done with the Skipton bound platform because its on one side of the triangleSkipton-bound LNERs do not currently call at Shipley, regardless of stock.
It'll be 7 coaches so they can keep up to the Azuma timings.
All the driver has to do is to stop in the correct place!
That would seem to be the best way to do it. Cutting two standard carriages would be too much of a loss to capacity?Remove one First and one Standard?

A 153 would be enough in the evening! I only ever see a handful of passengers on the train beyond Leeds.Both mk4 sets and the new things have been working to Skipton. Back in the days of normality, it was normally a mk4 set in the morning and a 9 car 800 in the evening.
A 5 car would do in the evening, but under normal conditions would not be adequate for the morning as a 9 car set is fairly busy before Leeds.
