One service will however not be re-instated.The 9.35am Leeds to Knaresborough Sunday service. Introduced in December, 2017 it has not been carried over into the new timetable.

Whilst the introduction of the new timetable saw commuters encounter delays and cancellations across the country the Harrogate line appears to have been unaffected.

An extra 1,300 services have been added to the Northern network, say Arriva Rail North Ltd, which runs the Northern franchise. It has previously said that around 90 per cent of it's services would be affected by the changes.
