They do when the line between Leeds and York is closed.
They reverse at Leeds, go through Castleford and rejoin the usual route at Church Fenton.

they've diverted the trains every sunday until 7th september, doing engineerin work along the line between leeds and micklefield.( garage trains still go to neville Hill depot on sunday) Noticed this in the timetable as I wait at crossgates station, it's replacement bus service until then.
There's more disruption later on in the year with standedge tunnel being closed for engineering, the main line for Transpennine express, expect divertions via hebden bridge after November.

This morning I missed my connection at Leeds because of a late running train from Manchester. The 0534 from the Airport was held back at Piccadilly (due to depart 0557) to allow the late running 0539 to Newcastle depart before the Airport-Scarborough one. If the Scarborough train had been permitted to depart on time it would have allowed the Newcastle train to overtake at Dewsbury using the third line there (or even Huddersfield). As it was, my train had to sit behind and wait for the other to stop at Stalybridge, whereas mine dosen't.
The conductor was most apologetic for this er, mishap. What a mess for who knows how many passengers!
