‘Check before you travel’ advice issued to people using services between Leeds and York this Easter weekend
Passengers planning to use services between Leeds and York over the Easter weekend have been told to check before they travel as there will be some disruption due to engineering works.
Northern’s stopping services between Leeds and York, calling at Cross Gates, Garforth, East Garforth, Micklefield, and Church Fenton, will be temporarily operated by TransPennine Express (TPE) between Saturday 19th April and Monday 21st April.
The timetable will remain the same and Northern tickets will still be valid on these services, even though they will be run by TPE.
Northern tickets will only be valid on these specific replacement services and customers cannot use them on other TPE services.
Additionally, due to engineering work in the Mirfield area, trains between Leeds and Manchester will be diverted via the Calder Valley route through Hebden Bridge.
As a result, Northern services on this route are expected to be much busier than usual.
Customers are being asked to check before travelling. Detailed journey times are available on online journey planners as well as the Northern app and website.
