I made the most of the delay by exploring historic York railway station and indulging in some trainspotting—captured some great shots of trains from Grand Central, LNER, TransPennine Express, and Northern Rail.
I’m now on the next CrossCountry service, albeit about 70 minutes behind schedule. But every cloud has a silver lining—I’m eligible for a full repay, covering both my ticket and the first-class upgrade. Edinburgh, here I come, better late than never!
