As alluded to earlier, a few of us ended up on the Chieftain which made a special stop at Doncaster (and waited there for quite some time!). Rather full (though a few people left to take other services) and we were in a vestibule - not all bad though given it was a HST and we also had a conversation with a fellow passenger who was on a trip from the US, which was interesting and passed the time on the diversion quite nicely. Non-stop through Wakefield Westgate platform loop, Copley Hill chord and non-stop through Leeds p8 too.
For the return journey, a few of us took the EMT Meridian which diverted via the S&K, avoiding Doncaster. Having left York about 4L, it only carried a similar length delay out of Sheffield
We did think about you - probably not the way you wished to spend your Sunday afternoon :P

Today was *not* a relaxing shift...
