Northern Rail

RE: Northern Rail
Yesterday I travelled on 158797 on the 1041 Sheffield to Bridlington. The train was unusually diverted to run direct between Aldwarke Junction and Mexborough Junction and not via its normal route through Swinton Junction. The diverted route used to be the main route between Doncaster and Rotherham until the early 90s when the Swinton Curve was re-instated.
