    Is there a time scale for this being done?

    Merseyrail Class 777 introduction updates

    Is the reworking of services from Hunts Cross related to platform extensions south of Liverpool?

    Merseyrail Class 777 introduction updates

    I’ve been away most of the summer so I missed a lot. Does that mean when everything is settled right car service will be the norm?

    Merseyrail Class 777 introduction updates

    They’re running eight car services on the Southport line today. Would that be some sort of testing or related to capacity demand? I rode one from Moorfields at around 2pm and it wasn’t busy.

    Plug sockets for laptop only

    Thanks. No there’s no USB port. I’ll risk using it. :)

    Plug sockets for laptop only

    I notice beside me on this SWR train I’m travelling on that there is a socket for laptop chargers only, next to my seat. Is there any reason why it might not suit a mobile phone charger, if indeed this is the case? It seems a bit odd that the socket would be for so specific a purpose. I can...

    Merseyrail legacy fleet updates (Class 507/508)

    For the life of me I cannot see a pacer in either of those pics. She’s a bit bashed up looking.

    Merseyrail legacy fleet updates (Class 507/508)

    I noticed this morning, too. Scum. She’s just passed my house heading south. I wonder if there’s a chance it’ll be cleaned off before she leaves service.

    Black and white chevron 8 car stop signs at Merseyrail stations

    I noticed 8 car stop signs have gone up around the Merseyrail network. Obviously for the new class 777s. But I was wondering why they are on striped boards rather than the fairly straightforward smaller ones showing 3,4 and 6 car stopping points.

    It’s great living next to the Southport line. I can look out of either side of my house and watch them go past. They even rumble distinctively compared to the 777s.

    Merseyrail legacy fleet updates (Class 507/508)

    I’ve seen 507001 alone passing Freshfield at high speed twice this morning. Heading south both times. What would be the reason for this? It appears the train has gone towards Hunts Cross and then done it again. Would this be from changes of plan on its use?

    11.19 from Hunts Cross?

    Just out of curiosity, where do you find all this out?
