Did I nearly miss you again?
I arrived at 15:40 and departed on the 16:05
We would have passed each other between BP & Chelmsford as I was on the services 30 minutes earlier (arrival at 15;13 and back towards Chelmsford on the 15;36 where I stepped back onto a 745)

Ilkeston – Nottingham

Nottingham – Langley Mill
Alfreton
– Nottingham
This strings me Chesterfield to Aslockton.

Derby – Tamworth – Crewe – Hartford
Greenbank – Hale

Manchester Piccadilly – Hyde North
Flowery Field
– Manchester Piccadilly – Sheffield

Cambridge North* – Histon & Impington – Cambridge, Round Church Street
Cambridge – Cambridge North – Tottenham Hale
*I am counting Cambridge North in the second instance because Cambridge North platform 4 (for the busway) is laid out as buses stopping on the road outside a station – indeed, it is where the replacement bus had dropped me the previous night, and I don't count that as having used a station – whereas Histon & Impington is laid out as a railway station with rails of concrete instead of steel – it even has a coffee bar, just like a typical commuter station.

Way too cold, wet, windy to do any more. Save myself for the weekend...

Plus the Middlewich PSUL. Despite that, a frustrating day of cancellations, delays, delays due to blocked toilets and a lovely 25 min hike against the clock around Valley thanks to a closed level crossing.

Nice day, if a bit chilly, up and down these two lines. The service up and down between Huyton and Wigan NW is very good, the hourly service for Huyton-Newton-le-Willows feels sub par.
