Drives trains in Yorkshire occasionally. Otherwise you could find me in a pub!
To an extent, there is a limit of shunt near the tunnel on the Leeds bound platform.

The old signal and what looks like its replacement lying on the floor in Knaresborough.

A Destination not normally seen on a 185, this was taken after terminating 60ish late at Stalybridge and then making the return journey east. It was swapped for an 802 at York.

A bit of standing time here at Manchester Victoria, before I take it onto Leeds to then wait to take the next one to Newcastle and bring the last one back to York. There was me thinking there was less driving in this link 😂
