Didn't want to hi-jack the thread on first class lounges, so thought I'd start a fresh one.
A while back the Huddersfield Examiner reported that there were plans being considered for a 'Platform 9' where the sidings are now beyond plat 8, to increase capacity for Leeds-bound trains.
Does anyone know if anything has come of that? Are there any other proposals to increase capacity? I'd have thought that wider infrastructure changes to the whole line were needed before a new platform really.
Also, why wouldn't they just re-instate the old platform 3 (now part of pl 1) instead?
