Wonder what has happened to this service (which calls at Lea Green at 0616) ax it has not run all this week.

Also note quite a few services to Newcastle that call at Lea Green are additionally calling at Newton-le-Willowa.

Probably to do with the ongoing TRU works, there's a reduced service across the pennines until next week which will change stock requirements.

Reduction in service across the Pennines due to Leeds to Huddersfield via Dewsbury closed for a period of four weeks on weekdays.

On the north route:
3tph York to Leeds is temporarily 2tph
4tph Leeds to Manchester is now 2tph
2tph Manchester to Liverpool is 1tph

Normal service resumes 23rd June 2025.

Hull services (which usually serve Lea Green) are starting/terminating at Leeds.

Scarborough services start/terminate at York instead of Victoria.

Airport services start/terminate at Victoria

Looking at realtimetrains.co.uk from Leeds to Bradford Interchange for today it's hourly Hull to Halifax, York to Blackpool North, Leeds to Chester, Leeds to Manchester Victoria and Leeds to Wigan Wallgate, and the remaining TPE Leeds to Manchester services going via Wakefield rather than the Calder Valley; are there any planned Northern Calder Valley reductions due to engineering works?

The TRU engineering works timetable differs from the "normal " timetable in that it is an hourly service on the Liverpool Lime Street – Leeds route, picking up the stops at Newton-le-Willows and Northallerton that are usually covered by other services.
