depending on which contract you are under...

ex TPE;
Barrow - Manchester Airport. (via Wigan and Chorley)
Lancaster - Windermere.
Preston to Blackpool. (i think)
Also signs Morecombe to turn sets via the triangle, also i think they work the first morecombe train to Windermere.

Northern;
Barrow to Preston.
Lancaster to Morecombe.
Barrow to Carlisle via Whitehaven.

Correct plus Heysham for Ex Northern.

Thank you. It would be a new contract...I'm just trying to get some info together, so am I right to presume that a new driver would operate under the northern route that you mention above?

It's Morecambe not Morecombe.

As far as I know you can be recruited for either link but they are on different contracts and terms of service so you would then work to whichever workload you are recruited to. There are vacancies in both links.
