Anyone know what's happenning in Wakefield ? There seems to be major disruption.

The trains were running like clockwork last night, and there hasn't been any notification of engineering works at this time.

No service through Kirkgate on the next 2 weekends due to improvement works. This has been advertised on Northern's social media

Given that there's a poster up on the station warning of Sunday and evening engineering works on the Pontefract line, you'd have thought they'd have one saying that our line would be closed all weekend.

But hey ho.

If there are large scale engineering works on the line, there are usually messages scrolling on the platform display.

I don't remember seeing these over the last week (although I might have been knackered in the mornings). Feel free to say if I'm wrong and messages have been on the platform displays.

Are you talking about disruption to to weather-related delays at Westgate, or are you talking about the engineering works resulting in buses replacing trains at Kirkgate?

Westgate seems to have been fine when I used it, so I guess the engineering works.

There were messages on the station PIS boards at Mirfield last week, warning of bustitution on Huddersfield to Castleford yesterday.
