No great problem for them as they can divert and in general would not be too affected by this slip anyway as they tend to be on the Wakefield - Goole line.
However the services to and from Immingham via Scunthorpe will have to divert via Gainsborough.
As for the passenger services, well its on the bus.
Just wonder if the Trans pennine or Northern Units to the East of the slip have any servicing facilities or will there have to be some ECS workings via Gainsborough to fuel and empty tanks?
