Its our busiest weekend across the network, please allow plenty of time for your journeys and be aware that our services will be VERY BUSY!

This Bank Holiday weekend we have a number of major events taking place across our network,as such, we are expecting large numbers of travelling passengers.

Leeds Festival 23-26 – large numbers of festival goers, probably with tents, bags and willies. Seat covers and shoe covers will be provided by the Leeds Customer Service team.

Ha ha love it, had to leave reply on Facebook!

I was on the train to York Racecourse from Manchester yesterday and they didn't supply any covers! They didn't put any extra carriages on either, just the usual 3 which meant that the train was ridiculous taking into account you had 30,000 people heading to the races and many thousands heading to Leeds with lots of baggage.
