It could easily be a possibility down the line that bidston - Wrexham does actually become part of the Merseyrail network . I did actually read in one of the Railway magazines dont know which one off hand that Merseyrail does have options on up to 60 more units , if they was to take that up im sure merseyrail would have a stabling issue anyway , so there is certaintly a high probabilty some form of electrification is possible . |

Service's have been restored this morning between Blaenau Ffestiniog and Llandudno Junction after rock damage above the railway at Pont-y-pant was removed . This line seems to be afflicted with problems every winter , in recent years its been wash outs , this being something a little different this time. |

I rode the loco-hauled service from Rhyl to Manchester Piccadilly on Thursday afternoon. Thank you for the clear timings KnutsTransport. I was surprised that it didn't stop at Newton-le-Willows or even Oxford Road. |

The stops were taken out to allow the train to keep its slot into Piccadilly. |

RE: Arriva Trains Wales
Does anyone know why there was a late evening service on Friday from Wrexham calling at Bidston only? |
