Leeds station in the early morning

I have never seen so few folks in Leeds train station, that everyday hustle to get through the ticketing to walking through an open gate…


Can you hear that?!


I think it were on platform 3b, its a little on the blurred side of things, my memory was failing big time by then…


My decision to get the last train home from the works party was a huge failure, so I got the first train back in the morning, 6:02 and shortly after this was taken the ticket conductor was rocking my shoulder in Ilkley station, finally got home 7:00 am, just in time to see my neighbour taking the dog out, thankfully I did not try talking…

It really is quite a decision but I must carry on defying the medics, erm, well sort of!

Sometime in the morning, my mind was drifting.
Sometime in the morning, I didn’t need lifting.
Sometime in the morning, standing up sleeping.
Sometime in the morning, times are not weeping.

Things are ok…

  1. Hey there!

    I really enjoyed reading about your early morning adventure at Leeds station. It sounds like a unique and somewhat surreal experience with the station being unusually quiet. That early morning decision to catch the first train back must have been quite an adventure, especially with the ticket conductor rocking your shoulder in Ilkley station!

    Your storytelling captures the essence of those spontaneous journeys, and it’s great that you can find humor in what might have been a challenging situation. I can almost imagine the atmosphere on platform 3b and the mix of blurry memories.

    By the way, next time you’re planning a last-minute decision like that, I stumbled upon this handy train travel website, CheapTrainTickets, which could be a lifesaver. It might help you avoid the hustle and bustle or, at the very least, provide some options for a smoother journey. Check it out for future travels – it might just save you from another shoulder-rocking encounter!

    Thanks for sharing your morning escapade, and here’s to more stress-free train journeys in the future! ✨

    Cheers
