158833 and 158837 both worked through to Liverpool that day, both being detached from Birmingham - Llandudno Junction services at Chester and following their original service in the Liverpool path. 833 swapped with a 197 on its return from Liverpool as that diagram didn't end in Chester, but...

197043 failed on arrival at Chester at 18:24 today.

I saw one of the MMC hybrids working a number 85 (Chortlon - Piccadilly) service this morning at All Saints Park.

Is it not Queens Road for Free Bus 1/2?

Saw a BZL on the 219 today. I assume this means Ashton electrification works are complete?

Could they justify an internal cascade to see off the Class 333s?

No. I have seen and been on it a few times now. Think it's been in service at least a month.

What's happening to the E400EVs then?

Without dedicated branding and buses, they've probably fallen into the crowd a bit.

Are the Enviro 100s about the right size to run routes 1 and 2. Maybe a trial batch before buying a few more?

That explains why I didn't see a single Versa all day then. Are the electric variants on routes 1/2 also to be withdrawn?

Perhaps getting the service going is a first step towards somewhere else? Blackburn comes to mind.

Could reopening to Llangefni be justified and the remainder converted for bikes. Thinking of whether the Manchester - Bangor could turn around there instead.

1 Manchester - Llandudno and 1 Shrewsbury - Holyhead per hour makes 2 trains per hour??

Are 5 coach diagrams now in place for Sunday's Manchester - Chester workings? Sure I just saw one.

Disruption on Northern, TPE and EMR. The 12:39 Oxford Road - Lime Street terminated at Oxford Road and returned to Nottingham. 13:11 TPE, 13:39 EMR, 13:46 Northern ran express to Liverpool via CLC. Warrington Central passengers directed to 13:48 TFW and then told tickets marked Northern weren't...

Presumably the siding on the end of Platform 1?

13:04 Manchester Piccadilly - Manchester Airport (originating from Liverpool Lime Street) was formed of a 319 today - unsure of number. Edit - 319381 was the number on RTT.

Never North Wales after ATW came into being - only those that ended their lives with Northern went to North Wales under FNW. Theres a picture out there from 2003 with a 142 substituting for a 175 on a Manchester - Llandudno at Manchester Oxford Road.
