What platform for TORNADO?

Post by Ferrybridge Flyer »

Does anybody know which platform on York station TORNADO is due in at on sunday?Hope it's inside,so i can hopefully get that lovely roof in my shots!Hope it's not platform 10 outwards-the york yuletide express was pushed out to platform 12.Very undignified!

York not have a platform 12!

All of them go out there except if they're going to Scarborough

It'll be a case of suck it and see at the time!

Yes,that's true.Oh well,there's nothing like a surprise!Here's hoping the heavy snow forecasted doesn't come while late afternoon.I could have sworn there is a platform 12.I know it was a freezing cold day-but i didn't realise my brain had frozen too!Really looking forward to tomorrow.

I suppose a small flurry of snow might be interesting!It's less than a year since i got into photographing locos as a hobby-a trip on "Flying Scotsman" on my birthday about 3 years ago now re-awoke a boyhood love that had somehow been buried.Not anymore!Great forum by the way!
