    The Normanton stop does not say to pick up passengers!!
    Will ring Vintage trains later today for clarification, hopefully!!, as the website is useless!!

    I wouldn't get too worried.
    These timings aren't really for public use, and I've often seen them revised multiple times leading up to the day.

    I can sense the disappointment there as I would feel the same. The trouble with that neck of the woods is that there are so many different ways of getting from A to B. I now have to look up to see whether the latest version gives me a new spur between Calder Bridge and Turners Lane Junctions!

    The point was that Kirkgate was marketed as a pickup point, so only Barnsley-Horbury possible without a reversal or substantial detour. I think I did Calder Bridge chord with Leander on a Grange over Sands to Doncaster leg of the 2016 GB. One saving grace is that it's still a rare run through Dore on the MML.

    The plot thickens... Well, fingers crossed, anyway.

    Just booked my ticket, I noticed the the number of Standard seats remaining has dropped from 70ish to 34 over the last couple of days, hopefully a sign it's proving popular.
