In fairness we used to climb in the racks 25 years ago, usually rather drunk on quiet last trains; always had a ticket though! We did marvel at how a rather portly friend could fit into a Voyager luggage rack yet even a relatively small suitcase couldn't! :lol:
If you include alternative routes you could say it's already 4 track between Ravensthorpe and Church Fenton due to the services now going via Kirkgate and Castleford.
They're not authorised for last mile type usage though, only in emergencies; I'm not sure one engine can power all systems and move the train at a sensible speed.
