There were lots of platform changes today as a result of disruption caused by a tractor blocking the line (and bringing the overhead down) between Doncaster and Leeds... the Kings Cross to Leeds trains were terminating in York's platform 6. The test trains from Doncaster were not running.

For some time now class 90s have been used on some of the Kings Cross - Leeds trains, but they have not ventured to York. This one did because of the disruption mentioned above.
Interestingly it is one of the 90s which has no Pullman rubbing plate but is set up for 110mph running. |

| The train is seen leaving platform 6. |
 |
| Yet another commemorative addition to the basic LNER livery. A worthy celebration for the trains which saved British Railways. |
 |
| The rubbish train empties pass through the station on time. |
 |
| ... causing some excitement among the small (and big) boys watching. |
 |
| Finally.... these two ladies obviously thought that the no smoking ban in the station did not apply if you hide behind a pillar while smoking. They saw me taking the picture and turned their backs on me. |
