Well, that's the laptop finished. The HDD has expired. It was Windows 7. I will not get a Windows 10 replacement. I'll use my mobile devices instead.

The 16.25 from Scarborough to Hull and Sheffield has been cancelled owing to hitting someone just south of Beverley station. I won't get home until late, but fully understand the situation. I just hope that whoever it is recovers in hospital. I wish them well.

The Met Office website has been updated. Not sure what to make of it.

Today I was informed that fares on Northern are not yet going up owing to a mistake. Make of that what you will.

57 minutes late from Leeds on the late running 16.38 to Hull. No driver and a fatality at Selby were the reasons given. I don't know when or if I will get to Beverley!

Just seen Leander departing Scarborough on a special to Castleford. Most spectacular sight as it departed into the setting sun.

16.25 Scarborough to Hull delayed by 21 minutes. A vehicle hit a bridge at Bridlington. It is the second time in three months that has happened!

Not true. There either has to be "intent to avoid payment" (Railways Act offence) or an intent to travel without a ticket where facilities existed to buy one before travel (Byelaw offence).

I amona train from York to Hull. We crossed over the ECML at Hambleton at 4.29 PM, and to the immediate south I saw what I think was a Freightliner which had come into some kind of difficulty. No mention on National Rails website about any service disruptions. I feel a bit baffled!
