Old Hill? Presuming 170's are used on the Snow Hill line?

 

[gnolife]

Old Hill? Presuming 170's are used on the Snow Hill line?

I'm not sure that 170s and LM 172s can be called 'virtually identical'

 

[Eagle]

Cheadle Hulme (321 and 323?).

 

[gnolife]

Cheadle Hulme (321 and 323?).

321s are all based at Neville Hill for use on services out Leeds. The only other thing booked out if CHU is an early morning 142 from Macclesfield

 

[clagmonster]

South Elmsall? I am hoping that no Donny-Leeds stoppers are booked DMUs or 333s these days.

1) This station is south of the route taken by a Helensburgh Central to Edinburgh Waverley service

Which one? (On Sundays they take a different route to that on other days of the week...)

Gourock.

 

[clagmonster]

By the same dedu but for Prenton Park instead, Birkenhead Hamilton Square?

 

[gnolife]

I didn't know that - I thought they were all via Clydebank and the Airdrie/Baathgate line

Thiz station is not planned to be electrified before 2020

 

[clagmonster]

Oops, it seems that I made a blunder with missing some posts. Hamilton Square did still match clue 1 though.

Filey?

Between this station and one or both adjacent stations, there is a clear view of the sea.

 

[clagmonster]

Frinton?

 

[Robinson]

Frinton?

That fails clue 2 as it's already electrified.

 

[clagmonster]

That fails clue 2 as it's already electrified.

Therefore it can not possibly be planned to be electrified.

 

[Robinson]

West Runton?

 

[gnolife]

Therefore it can not possibly be planned to be electrified.

It is planned to be electrified in 2020, unless someone comes along and pinches all the wires.
