Posting on Twitter, Geoff Ram said: "And now some ‘idiots’ according to the driver have managed to stop all trains in and out of Leeds."

Minha Fayoom posted: "As if the flooding wasn’t bad enough now all the trains in Leeds are delayed/cancelled because people have decided to trespass on the tracks.

"I love it when people get together and take action to better their circumstances."

"They can just follow the tracks home now."
