RE: Northern (Arriva Rail North)
From TfGM:

19:00 Manchester Airport-Barrow in Furness changes from a 3 car Class
185 to a 3 car Northern unit with a resulting increase in available capacity

The following services will remain as 4 carriage workings but see a slight
decrease in available capacity due to the formation of train units used:
07:57 Wigan NW – Victoria
08:21 Blackpool North – Huddersfield
08:44 Victoria – Southport
10:23 Southport – Manchester Airport
11:15 Huddersfield – Wigan Wallgate
12:03 Manchester Airport – Southport
13:45 Wigan Wallgate – Stalybridge
14:23 Southport – Manchester Airport
15:08 Stalybridge – Victoria
16:03 Manchester Airport – Southport
16:11 Victoria – Stalybridge
16:30 Stalybridge – Wigan Wallgate
18:15 Southport – Manchester Airport
18:24 Wigan Wallgate – Victoria
19:35 Victoria – Wigan Wallgate
20:03 Manchester Airport – Southport
22:18 Southport – Manchester Piccadilly

The following train services which previously ran as 4 car units will now run
as 2 carriage:
03:38 Lime Street – Manchester Airport
04:34 Manchester Airport – Lime Street
06:36 Victoria-Leeds
18:14 Victoria – Wigan NW
19:03 Wigan NW – Lime Street

The above are a direct result of the TPE 170s leaving and going to Chiltern with Northern needing to find replacements for the 185s used on North West routes.
