Notes :
(1) Booked route was via Leeds, but due to crash in Edge Hill sidings (where E.C.S. came from) the stock arrived at Sheffield (hauled by 47442) 2 hours late so was diverted to save time (booked route was via Moorthorpe, Wakefield Westgate & Leeds). A DMU provided a special service for passengers from Leeds to York. Train still left York 90mins down.
