The 323 worked 09:16 Crewe-Liverpool, 11:00 Liverpool-Warrington BQ, 12:12 Warrington BQ-Liverpool and 13:28 Liverpool-Crewe etc, all booked for a 323 anyway on a Saturday. However, with the driver training issues and route clearance issues, the latter being now being solved obviously, it must...

Or you mean working it’s booked diagram LT107 which includes a visit to Liverpool.

I think people forget the pressure that rail staff are under from those higher above, regarding passenger accidents, especially those involving the PTI (platform/train interface). God forbid, if something had happened when you had gone over the yellow line and it had gone unchallenged by staff...

No 323’s to Liverpool until at least September.

Trains can be ‘hidden’ or deleted on CIS from the remote systems.

Procedure I have dealt with and deal with is the following: Traincrew report ill passenger on the train, ascertain the condition of the casualty, ask station staff to assist (if available) and see if they can be moved off the train into the care of the station staff. Train gets on the move...

Hmmm, if you are advised by the ambulance service, when phoning 999, to not move an ill passenger, you don’t move them, simple as that. Unfortunately, the stock response when phoning 999, seems to be not to move the person, therefore stopping the job.

As I’ve said many a time, committed Sundays outside the working week are the way to go, it works for me (mostly) as there are grabbers who will work a Sunday that I cannot work and similarly, I’m hungry enough for the overtime that I will work Sunday’s that others don’t want. Don’t get me wrong...

Only Lime Street learning them (for now) Manchester Piccadilly, (possibly Buxton) already sign them, however Piccadilly don’t go to Blackpool.

It’s all the same crew, however the Chester-Helsby-Ellesmere Port-Man Vic job is still a Lime Street job but STP’d during the blockade, the crew are taxied to Chester first job of the evening for the crew. The stock for 5F14 should come off 16:41 Manchester Piccadilly-Chester (2D53). However...

I was just going off the WON, after the works at Ashton-under-Lyne-Stalybridge a few months ago, however it does look like it is used!

It will be in service as 150209 and it will have its own self-contained diagram coupled to a 153 all day on Blackburn/Clitheroe-Rochdale services.

It is booked 2 units the 09:11 (2x150’s) one detaches stay at Buxton until 15:02.

Platform 5 at Stalybridge is out of use until further notice, so no point replacing that screen (yet)

Looks like 17:59 Huddersfield was delayed awaiting traincrew, which may not have been known about, at the time. And using platform 4 you can’t crossover onto the Up Electric without blocking the Down Electric first, therefore delaying other services.

It’s worth mentioning that these Tyrell/JourneyCheck messages don’t just go to TOC websites, NRE for example. They can also be setup to go to local media outlets, radio stations, newspapers, so simple, plain, non-jargon language is essential. Any information for eg: a track circuit failure...

You’re right, that’s changed from earlier this morning!

No, it skipped stations due to late running to ensure as close to a right time departure for its next work and avoid further congestion. Where were you actually travelling to, out of interest? As there was a service that ran non-stop Leeds-Huddersfield missing calls at Dewsbury/Morley/Batley...

It doesn’t; it’s retimed to arrive at 01:00 and reverses at Huddersfield and diverted via the Calder Valley, so doesn’t serve Huddersfield-Stalybridge-Man Picc.
