Picture of the Day
A perfect meet of Northern Class 158s. On 16 April 2026, Northern Trains '158s' pass at Mirfield, West Yorkshire during a short spell of sunshine. Three-car set No. 158754 has just departed from Mirfield station with train 2I16 the 12.17 Leeds to Wigan Wallgate, while train 2I11 the 10.49 from Wigan to Leeds, formed of two-car sets No. 158816 and 158870, is slowing for it's stop just out of sight round the corner. There are more signs here of progress with the Transpennine Route Upgrade, with the appearance recently of a couple of masts for the future electrification of the lines.
