A train operator is 'strongly urging' people not to travel on the railways tomorrow as Storm Eunice hits the UK.
TransPennine Express has issued a statement asking customers to travel today or on Saturday instead of on Friday, when the storm is set to bring 'extremely strong winds'.
As several weather warnings are in place tomorrow, including a rare red 'danger to life' warning, the operator will be running a 'minimal train plan'.
Emergency speed restrictions will also be put in place by Network Rail.

Train tickets already purchased for today can be used tomorrow or on Saturday, bosses at TransPennine Express said.
Customers can also apply for a full refund online if do not wish to travel.
Paul Watson, Operations Director for TransPennine Express said: "Storm Eunice will be the second storm to impact our services this week and it is likely to cause major disruption to train services, right across the North of England and into Scotland.
"The most important thing is that our customers and staff are kept safe, and we are urging customers not to travel by train on Friday 18 February.
"We are instead asking customers to make their journeys on either Thursday 17 or Saturday 19 February.
"The situation with the weather is changing all the time, and customers should continue to check our website or National Rail Enquires for the latest information."
This comes after Storm Dudley battered the UK on Wednesday, causing significant travel disruption including train cancellations and problems on the road.
The Met Office is warning of even more disruption caused by Storm Eunice tomorrow.
Winds of up to 95mph are forecast in some areas with the storm also expected to bring some snow.
The government is holding an emergency Cobra meeting to discuss the response to the storm today.
