Leeds:
On the way to Leeds I needed some food so I decided to go out to Boots for a meal deal (AVOID Upper Crust - RIP OFF!)
Back at Leeds it was straight back in to the spotting 185146 was on 1P70 to Manchester Airport. After getting my meal deal I managed to get another new one in the book 333013 then 333004 arrived to form 2P40 to Bradford Foster Square. 153307 appeared with an ECS move shortly before 185142 with the 1K69 from Manchester Piccadilly.
1D83 Selby to Manchester Victoria (I must go to Manchester Vic one day) was 158758.
Another new sighting was 158901 on a terminating 1B22 from Preston. The trains just kept rolling in and out.

And on to Doncaster.
At Wakefield Westgate 2B68 headed towards Leeds with 321902. Then between Wakefield and Donny (near Fitzwilliam station) Three services were noted. 67028 heading to Leeds as the Thunderbird to rescue 91105 that failed in the platform. 66005 was in a passing loop on 0E23 From Toton to Wakefield Europort. Then passing me was a nice little surprise in the shape of a pair of 'Choppers' on RHTT. 3S14 Grimsby Pasture Sd to Bridlington was 20302, 20305 both a pair of 'cops'.
Doncaster:
66413 was at the head of 4E23 to Leeds from Felixstowe as I approached the station. Once I alighted from the train I managed 158793 arriving on 1J46 Bridlington to Sheffield. Next to photograph was 220007 working the 1E32 Reading to Newcastle CrossCountry service. Stabled adjacent to the old BREL works was 43153, 43040, 66434 plus two GWR coached. Gone was the Large Logo 66 and EuroPhoenix 37 which I wanted to photograph - typical!
