Most of what I know comes from observing the work compounds when I drive past, or reading scraps of info on online forums. That said, if you've got any specific questions about particular parts of the TRU, I'm happy to go and take a look, or can try to find out the answers. I sense that the next big thing will be further work on Huddersfield Viaduct in the New Year.

    WOW, an impressive video, featuring that osmondthorpe road bridge of whom now being reconstructed/replaced as part of th vital yet crucial upgrade.... A friend of mine - who's also a fellow member of specialist autism services charity like I am, lives near there - osmondthorpe road bridge of course, And great to see a stretch of the same transpennine route at cottingley, as well as across churwell viaduct in this video, as well as morley station too.... I myself (with autism) happen to live in morley, even near churwell, especially to where the railway line passes through out there.... I also have another friend who lives somewhere in churwell, Hopefully during the new year 2025, further TRU works will eventually take place.... I do believe the footbridge at cottingley station might have to be risen higher - before wires of the electrification are installed, as well as the geldard road bridge - further to the north of cottingley station, might also be reconstructed higher, so that electrification wires can pass underneath said geldard road bridge, Also, I do believe cottingley station is going to be replaced by 'white rose station' from when it's eventually built as part of the route upgrade..... even when electrification passes through morley station, I bet it'll be an extra challenging task for workers on installing wires through the incredibly long & winding morley tunnel that passes beneath the hilly old market town centre, en-route to batley and onto dewsbury too, Osmondthorpe road bridge isn't the only structure being reconstructed, so I'm positive geldard road bridge might also be undergoing the same treatment out there as we speak. It really will be a huge transformation (in the making) from when the entire transpennine route is fully electrified, as well as vitally yet crucially upgraded too.
