Just two:
1. 09:17 Manchester-Chester 150+142
2. 15:04 Chester-Manchester 150+150

The first is in lieu of a separate ECS move. The second is due to the high volume of school kids and a unit being available for strengthening at that time. The 07:17 Manchester-Chester is busier but only gets a single 150.

The 06:33 Chester-Stockport was 150+150 but was set to be de-strengthened to morning peak Preston-Hazel Grove service to be strengthened.

The majority of morning peak services are Sprinters. The most crowded booked Pacer workings are the 16:04 Chester-Manchester and the 16:17 Manchester-Chester.
