    How long would works on the scale of Bridge 42 usually take? Less than 3 months (if they plan to reopen fully in time for easter) sounds quick.

    I doubt the bridge will be tackled. I thought work would be late 2027 for completion in 2028.
    It may be work on platform 4 at Grosmont and signalling for the NR connection will be this winter.

    I assume the line is shut now north of Goathland until Easter, so that gives them over 5 months to carry out the work. It's not going to be a quick job, especially not in the middle of potentially a very cold, snowy winter.

    Whether they can afford it is another matter...
