Disruption to travel

Due to a landslip between Wakefield Kirkgate and Barnsley, our services will be disrupted on Wednesday 11 February and Thursday 12 February.

On Thursday 12 February, buses will replace trains between Wakefield and Barnsley (in both directions) - there will be no train service between these two stations as a result of this incident.

Services will also be disrupted between Sheffield and Leeds (in both directions) with a reduced service operating and services being diverted via Moorthorpe.

Our advice to customers is to check before you travel.
