Robert Trowell said: “Actually gonna miss my coach because someone’s trespassing on the train tracks inbetween Halifax and Bradford.”
A Northern Rail spokeswoman confirmed that one of its train had been forced to stop for a short time due to trespassers.
She said British Transport Police were now investigating.
