The advice varies depending on the train operator as not all companies have rail replacement services.

CrossCountry

CrossCountry said passengers should not travel today ‘unless it is necessary.’

Trains might be diverted via Doncaster, and services will skip Leeds and Wakefield.

Tickets will be accepted in two CrossCountry services running before or after your cancelled train, and on LNER, Northern or TransPennine services. However, passengers should note that the other operators are affected too by the Leeds disruption.

Road rail replacement has been requested between Doncaster and Leeds, York and, depending on availability, to Wakefield Westgate.

Northern

Customers are told not to travel.

Ticket restrictions have been lifted during the disruption.

Northern customer service told several people on X that it has been unable to source rail replacement.

Those who paid for alternative transport were told to email receipts to enquiries@northernrailway.co.uk to discuss compensation.

LNER

It has rail replacement buses running between Leeds and Doncaster, and it will be arranged for Bradford Foster Square, Harrogate, York and Leeds.

Tickets for Bradford Foster Square, Harrogate, Wakefield Westgate and Leeds today will be valid for use tomorrow.

TransPennine Express

Passengers should not travel unless necessary if their journey is to, from or via Leeds.

Customers should not travel north of Manchester. Although trains are running, the scale of the disruption means trains through Leeds will be ‘heavily delayed’ or there will be ‘severe overcrowding,’ the operator said.

Tickets for today will be accepted tomorrow.
