Take this Sunday cross country service from Bristol Temple Meads to Newcastle between York and Norton South Junction outside Eaglescliffe on a diversion in the summer of 1988 while the last preparations are being made for the ECMLs electrification.

York station is closed in preparation for electrification and remodelling of the station layout. Further north, all traffic is diverted via Eaglescliffe, Stockton and Stillington due to OHLE work between Northallerton and Darlington. You will stop at Eaglescliffe for a rail connection to Darlington.
