| 1625847344020303872 | Sat waiting for a train at Bristol Parkway and opened my phone to check @RealtimeTrains when I heard the rails start to sing. DC Rails 60029 arriving with its load to run round prior to onward movement https://t.co/88j6UZHiDt | 12 |

| 1626523255233298433 | The 10:10 now showing as “On time” — which is interesting, cos @RealtimeTrains records no trains as having arrived in Ilkley since I was there half an hour ago, when it was very much a train-free-zone … https://t.co/EB6HkjEm2a | 2 |
| 1627921208544043008 | @chris_storey @RealtimeTrains @TPEassist @TPExpressTrains I made the mistake of not checking last night. | 1 |
| 1626577369510330370 | A train has arrived in #Ilkley! And I'm sat on it!My tactic may just have worked: ignore all the trains which @NorthernAssist/@NationalRailEnq show as “On time” (then cancel), and only turn up to the station once @RealtimeTrains shows an incoming service as having arrived. | 1 |
