Скачать или смотреть Trains at Halifax - 08/10/2020

Filmed on 08/10/2020. As Autumn approaches, it is time to really kick start our day in the heart of West Yorkshire. Starting with a busy and interesting island platform station, Halifax (Season 7 Episode 18)

A Northern operated station which hasn't changed much at all since its BR Days. Note as well the old railway signs which were onced used for steam trains to reverse or first generation DMU's to reverse back up the line to switch back.

It is out with the class 142 and 144 Pacerbuses and in with the latest and newest trains in action with the Northern class 195's. Grand Central also serves Halifax station with few daily services linking between Bradford Interchange and London Kings Cross. Brand new services has been introduced including the new Leeds to Chester and the new Hull to Halifax services. Linking brand new through connetions for North Wales and to East Yorkshire. Northern has also split their Leeds to Huddersfield via Bradford Interchange services into just the shuttle service between Bradford Interchange and Huddersfield which are now worked by 2 class 150/2 units. In place for the single car class 153's are are slowly getting withdrawn from Northern to begin their new life with ScotRail. But, it does mean an additional Leeds to Manchester Victoria service.

Since Northern introduced the new class 195's they have proven their worth with Northern with early running services meaning that some trains would have to wait at Halifax for 2 or 3 minutes before they meet their departure times.

During an hours trainspotting at Halifax, this is the variety that was seen:

Northern Trains Limited Class 150/2
Northern Trains Limited Class 158
Northern Trains Limited Class 195
