I'm on the 1201 from Leicester to Sheffield,which left Leicester 22 minutes late.
I've got an advance ticket to Carlisle, with changes at Sheffield, Leeds, Appleby (bus), and Penrith.
It looks like I'm going to miss my connection at Sheffield which is onto the 1314 Northern service. There's also a Northern service at 1318, and a Crosscountry at 1321,which would get me to Leeds on time.
There is no train after this that would allow me to make the connection at Leeds.
My train is currently expected to get to Sheffield at 1318.
So it looks like the Crosscountry service is my best option,if we can make up a couple of minutes.
Would I need to get permission in advance to travel on this train?
If the delays mean I can't get to Leeds on time, I'll have a wait of over three hours for the next train to Appleby.
If that happens would I be allowed to take a different route?
