Day ticketer needs a little advice!

Hey.

I've been to Reading for the weekend a few times before, but never Leeds. I'm coming up for the Radiohead day on my own (I always said if I went to the festival again I'd try Leeds, plus I know a mate working up there I can catch up with) but just have a few questions.

I'm planning to arrive on the train for about 11ish in the morning, from past experience I know the bands I really care about tend to start at around 1ish, so I assume a few hours is enough to get the shuttle bus to the festival site?

However, where my main concern is after the day is over. I'll be knackered (after getting up at 7 and being on my feet all day) and wanted to make sure that I'll have a means to get back to Leeds train station that evening. My mate will be in the workers campsite, so it's not an option to crash in his tent. Do the shuttle buses run for at least a few hours after the final band? Also will Leeds train station be a fairly secure place to crash that night whilst I wait for the first train of the day? I'm not going to having much of value on me, but I can't see me waiting 6 hours in the station without drifting off for a nap, but wouldn't want to in a near empty station...

Thanks.

Yeah the shuttle buses run until well after the last band and there are plenty of them. I did a similar thing last year and the station is full of people hanging around waiting for early trains, you'll be fine.
