[@icextransport8490]

After the snow from Beast from the East and the North East gets rain.

The other day I saw something very rare at Middlesbrough station.

[@TheTransportLens]

That feels like it needs a punchline.....

[@icextransport8490]

A 6 car Transpennine class 185 departing from platform 2 on the 15:57 service to Manchester Airport

[@TheTransportLens]

Bet that was a bit of a squeeze on the flatform :)

[@icextransport8490]

Actually no it fitted on the platform alright and the rear unit was on empty stock I do believe

[@busman252]

It's snowing in Sheffield

coolguy 66 we've had it again this morning but is not to bad up here now. Frustrating 😕

[@Guard_Amos]

I must admit. I don't like the new Arriva or Stagecoach livery, They both had nice liveries. They don't now. For me Transdev have nice, crisp modern liveries. I love how you got an ALX photo bombing you. Oh how I miss working the 142's

[@TheTransportLens]

The one I'm still seriously on the fence about is the new East Yorkshire.....

[@Guard_Amos]

@@TheTransportLens Agreed. Yes its modern. But, its taken the image away that will always be associated with East Yorkshire and Scarborough. Its like the new Stagecoach livery

[@louisthetravelspotter]

try the number 36 ripon Harrogate and leeds

[@TheTransportLens]

Sigh - I'd settle for just getting out with my camera right now :( I'm sure we'll be back to Leeds when all the current issues are sorted. Don't think His Knibs likes Harrogate for spotting though, not sure why.

hi there my name is louis graham im a travel and themeparkspotter as you can tell with my channel whats middlesborough station like for trainspotting would you recommend it to me does middlesborough station have radar key or disabled toilets and waiting rooms for my uncle can you message me back as soon as posibal

[@TheTransportLens]

Hi Louis. Not sure what the current state of play is with Middlesbrough Train Station. They've been renovating it and I've not been for a while. It's mostly local services that run through there, pacers etc. Can't help with the waiting room or disabled access question sorry. Last time I was there the staff didn't want me filming inside the building so i can't check my footage for clues. From memory you there was ramp and lift access and you could wait inside the main building, but I don't know what the situation would be like now.
