Merseyrail legacy fleet updates (Class 507/508)

[Borkyyy]

08:03 off Southport and 09:03 off Central to be formed of 2x507s. Then standing down as the diagram does

6 car or 3 car? Also hopefully it stays on today, as i might catch it.

Any chance they could be back out when the diagram restarts? (16:03 2G43)

I guess so. It seems deliberately done as 777053 did come in service and has been replaced for this part of the diagram presumably to boost capacity.

It’s 6 cars. Standing down after the 9:03 service but remains to be seen if it comes back this afternoon or 777053 takes back over

6 car or 3 car? Also hopefully it stays on today, as i might catch it.

507003 + 507029 should now be off the diagram. 5T80 and 0S00 standing in the same signal block at platform 2. There doesn't seem to be a 777 to take over right now in Southport

Edit: 5T80 now left Southport on an ECS soon to pass Freshfield

a certain 3 car headed for the line that will make rotherham a bit annoyed…

507029 is currently in charge of the 11.36 Hunts Cross - Ormskirk service. Absolutely superb to get one of these on the Northern Line again.

Out all day?

 

[mikecmac]

Sorry to ask the question,but has anyone seen 777035 on Merseyrail I take it has been moved from storage by now?

 

[Borkyyy]

So happy to see 507029 on Ormskirks absolutely brilliant

 

[507020]

16:03 is in 17 minutes. Is there any word on whether 507003 or 777053 will leave Southport on this diagram?

 

[zain_031]

Anyone know how much longer 029 will be out for?

 

[mikecmac]

507029 just called at Kirkdale standing room only on its way to Ormskirk!!

Definitely short of 777's 142 and 150 on Ormskirks, waiting for 507029 to appear at Walton.

507029 is still out. Maybe for another run back to Ormskirk?

Looks like it's 507003 on the 1702 LVC to SOP

Is it doing the 18:03 to Liverpool

Is it doing the 18:03 to Liverpool

Not sure, only knew earlier because I passed it at Sandhills

 

[zain_031]

Onboard 029 now, sounding amazing. Havent been on one for months

It can’t have been. 16:03 off Southport was 777053, with 507003 still in the sidings 20 minutes later when I left.

Oh sorry, my view of it wasn't great when I passed so must've thought it was and it wasn't

You may have passed it earlier in the day, but it didn’t stay on the diagram.

 

[prod_pep]

507029 has stayed out to the end of its diagram. It is currently on the 22.36 Ormskirk - Hunts X and will conclude with the 23.37 back to Liverpool Central. Just brilliant as mentioned above: a thoroughly enjoyable day was had chasing this.

Any 507s out this morning?
It would appear, 507029 stabled on Kirkdale depot overnight.

Hello, I'd appreciate knowing which GWR IET is doing today's East-West paths 5Q40 to 5Q47? I've photographed it at a few locations but I couldn't see the number. Many thanks.

I don’t believe there are any currently in service.

if 029 has been stored in Kirkdale od imagine they would probably move it to either Southport or North Depot.

It worked 2S01 0617 Liverpool to Southport and is now stabled there.

[Formby EMU Fan]

I think I may have just had my last ever ride on a 507. Here’s 029 at Freshfield @12:34. Farewell old friend ☹️

 

[cjbirkett]

Apparently 507 018 is due to start at Rock Ferry at 13.27 on what should be the 12.57 ex Chester.

These guys really do refuse to die!! - I have to say I can't see anything on rtt to confirm the ecs though

 

[Northerngirl]

This is showing on the board at lime street
