Yes - they are painted bright yellow. I commute to Leeds so knew it had been done, but never the reason why. I would assume Shipley (curvature) being one of the main reasons.

I would assume so, yes - DVT is normally at the south end and 91 at the north end

Bentley (Yorks), in South Yorkshire is similar for this. The car park is on the Leeds bound side, so I impacts those heading to Doncaster and Sheffield. Only way across if level crossing, which can be held down for LNER trains and also freight. Plenty drive to Adwick as it can be quicker.

Thanks Haywain. I swear when I looked earlier it was not showing, it is now!

I assume this is now being move to other routes. I commute 2 days a week from Doncaster to Leeds, usually getting an advance, though the LNER app to get the credits (depending upon price difference) or anytime day return (if I want flexibility on return from Leeds). Sometimes as well splitting...

I guess anything is possible within reason. Looking on real time trains now it has triggered in Inverness, 30 minutes early. However, it does appear that it will wait at Muir of Ord for the Tain working heading back South to Inverness - which should mean Dingwall in line with expected...

Writing this as a senior finance manager in a university. The audited figures will come out at the relevant point and I don't think they are trying to hide anything. Yes, major companies issue profit warnings, but they have shareholders trading shares on dividend expectations. The NYMR, is not...

That explains why I saw it running through doncaster around 11 this morning on its way north.

To be fare, as a Doncaster local, I have always looked curiously at the 2 services and staffing (is it railway taxis in the middle of the night to and from York, or a crew effectively have a night turn for 3 hours in York)

Looks like it went back South from Grantham, to then pick up the joint (Spalding) line. Hence reappearing at Doncaster

Thanks, didn't fully look back

Looks like sense has prevailed with a 9 vice 5 swap. Normally this comes off the last Lincoln, but appears to now be coming off the Aberdeen service. Seemingly credit where it is due

Fingers crossed for tomorrow as I am going to Durham from Donny, on the 8.30 out of London (which is a Ferme Park starter) and where I believe 801225 will stable tonight)

Whilst only Doncaster to Leeds (and not the trial bit, YET), previously there used to always be "smartsave" options even on the night before when I am on days in the office. Recently they have been getting less and less, meaning only the standard day return (at £19.40) is available. Just...

I could be wrong, but it had been on the road for around 4.5 hours by that point, is it a break for the driver (was stopped for 40 minutes before then proceeding through the UF at Doncaster, as against a platform). 1S95, having left over 3.5 hours later was nothing like that in terms of driver...
