TRAIN commuters trying to travel between Bradford, Ilkley, Skipton and Leeds are facing delays this morning due to animals on the line.
Cows on the line have been causing chaos earlier this morning, and now dogs on the tracks are causing delays too.
The 9.10am train from Ilkley to Leeds had to be cancelled due to animals on the line, and trains in and out of Bradford Forster Square and Skipton have been delayed due to the four-legged intruders.
One commuter said she left Ilkley at 7.48am and should have arrived in Bradford at 8.20am, but instead was turfed off the train in Shipley and had to catch a second train into Bradford, eventually arriving at 9.10am.
Another commuter said he was stuck on his train in Ilkley "due to a dog on the line", which is causing a backlog of journeys.
