    Do you not have the annoying "The approaching train is not scheduled to stop at this station stand back from the platform edge" announcement in Northern Land?

    22 minutes in the bay but only 3 minutes in Holgate. No other appreciable stops en route until Tees Yard. Makes me think it's a water stop.

    Is there a hydrant on P7? Cannot see any other reason to go into the station and it is there for 22 mins. The RTT data also seems to miss the reversal at York as well.
    Edit posted as @5944 came to the same conclusion.

    Yes we do! but usually only at the busier main line stations. The more usual announcements at the lesser stations are , "the next train to arrive at platform [X] is the (delayed) [time] Northern service to . . . and "Northern Trains are sorry to announce that the [time] service to . . . has been cancelled." We get at lot of those.
