Government have said operators should be providing around 70% of their usual services from mid-May, up from the current 50%. Although, I'm not sure Northern are providing 50% - on many routes they are currently providing 50% of the standard off-peak frequency with a later start, earlier finish and without providing peak time extras. |

I hope there's more services still to be loaded. The Mid-Cheshire is still showing a 2 hourly service for next week - that won't exactly allow people to stagger their start and finish times given that means only one pre-9am arrival in Manchester, with the following one not reaching Piccadilly until 10:30! |

Northern have just told Rail North that Pacers will be used to transfer staff around instead of taxis in some cases to allow social distancing. Also: - A number of Pacers will be retained until 31st December 2020 and could be used for passenger services if needed. - Class 769 introduction and introduction of further new trains delayed due to COVID-19 delaying training. - 100 day plan has not been completed and may now be revised if Northern "don't want to return to the pre-COVID19 timetables" |

Am assuming the Pacers in question are Class 144? For Blog Posts Containing all the latest in the local Bus Scene The 2002 Bus Blog Subscribe to my Youtube Channel, Updated regularly! All my Social Media Links here! https://linktr.ee/TerencePrice |

Wouldn't it mean driver training is needed if a 144 was sent to say Allerton for shunting staff between Allerton and Lime Street, which wouldn't for a 142? The 4 142s at Blackburn will probably be used. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |
