WEEKEND travellers and early morning shoppers came face-to-face with the undead last weekend, when an army of zombies invaded a train station.

Nathan Foxcroft, from Thirsk, was part of a group of people who converged on Leeds station on their way to the city’s International Film Festibal.

As partners of the film festival, train company Northern Rail joined in the fun by laying on a zombie make-up counter at the railway station to transform film buffs, shoppers and commuters into gruesome, brain-eating zombies.

The free make-overs saw people young and old transformed into the living dead - sporting pale ghoulish complexions, gruesome wounds, scabby-faces and zombie scars.

The festival runs until November 22 and features new films from the Cohen Brothers (The Serious Man) and Jane Campion (Bright Star).
