RE: Northern Rail - wirralbus - 20/02/2015 17:28 I think the diagram they plan to use it on , uses more than one set . Those sets could then be used to strengthen other services elsewhere . This can not be more than a stopgap measure really as loco hauled sets will in the long term cost more .

Hope the testing goes well! SD. RE: Northern Rail - SLTRegular - 24/02/2015 01:30 During the Farnworth Tunnel Closure Kirkby (Merseyside) will lose direct services to Manchester and they will be redirected to Bolton and that will be the only Link between Wigan-Bolton RE: Northern Rail - St Helens Rider - 24/02/2015 07:07 (24/02/2015 00:32)gka472l Wrote: First visit of the class 319 to Lime Street this evening, 319362/3 doing test runs of the newly energised wires to Newton Le Willows. Fantastic pictures. Soon they will be a regular sight at Lime Street. I wonder how long until the Huyton - Springs Branch is energised. RE: Northern Rail - St Helens Rider - 25/02/2015 17:11 Information credit to Rail UK Forum. Northern Rail has confirmed that pending a successful test of the line tonight and ORR final approval, it is planning run its first electric Class 319 services next week, from Liverpool to Manchester Airport. Just for your info these are the confirmed runs that will be worked by 319 electric trains until the May timetable change, which will then see further 319's introduced. 0616,0716,0916,1215,1416,1516,1713,1814 Liverpool-Man Airport and 0735,0840,1040,1340,1540,1640,1840,1940 Man Airport-Liverpool. So at last we get to see the refurbished 319's in passenger service. RE: Northern Rail - cx04axy - 25/02/2015 17:45 Fantastic update :-) finally something decent for the northern hub RE: Northern Rail - wirralbus - 25/02/2015 19:46 Thats excellent news finally something to show for the electrification work being undertaken. |
