    Grand Central stranding passengers (28/03)?

    It was all going so well until the last line...

    No plans at this time.

    Transpennine Route Upgrade and Electrification updates

    They'll be clear once they start demolishing them! The unit there is for the first Penistone in the morning, it normally stays in P2 but obviously that's not possible this weekend with the crane etc.

    Allowed one unit at that side of the sidings whilst work ongoing.

    Speculation: East Yorkshire to launch competition on York - Selby route?

    He's ex-railway so interesting he wants to compete with it now!

    Transpennine Route Upgrade and Electrification updates

    I think it's slow but considering it's pretty much all been done in standard overnight possession opportunities plus it's all new track and new signals done at the same time plus the spans required to bridge a four track railway it's not too bad.

    How difficult is it to arrive or leave at all timetabled platforms. 5 year project to achieve this.

    Batley East was installed Feb 2023 and padlocked out of use then and commissioned in June 2023 and has been in working order since. It'll get plenty of use over the next 5 years.

    Northern Short Forming Again

    As discussed in the GoS derailment thread - they are not cleared and therefore stuck.

    Northern Short Forming Again

    Unfortunately 4x3 car 195s stuck at Barrow plus the two damaged in the derailment. Leaves a bit short of three cars.

    Northern Tender for up to 450 units

    They are already fitted, they just need modifications etc.
