RE: DB Cargo
I would imagine a Class 66 to start with. If as hoped the service starts to get heavier loadings it could justify pairs of 90s from Edge Hill as the line is electrified all the way.

RE: DB Cargo

RE: DB Cargo
It would have to be diesel powered between edgehill and seaforth as its just normal lines with no electrification.

RE: DB Cargo
You are quite right that Edge Hill to Seaforth is not electrified. I should have made myself clearer - Edge Hill to Mossend is electrified.

RE: DB Cargo
Your question of where did I get the information from? Well it on TRUST which is a railway operational system which neither you or I have access to but my friend has a contact who has.
Further information received indicates that there are services from both Mossend and Daventry, which is excellent news.
