Partly a modal shift with more trains into Liverpool than previous years but I would more say that it's just Arriva wanting to wind down and keep only the routes which are the top earners. Runcorn has been rumored for closure for the past few years, wind down what you can and then see what (if anything) can be moved to other depots.
It's a shame Halton are in such a bad way or they could compete and take over routes being lost.
