As others have rightfully noted, the service isn't fully operational yet though. https://twitter.com/tfwrail/status/1458792008236126215 Hope that helps. |

RE: Transport for Wales Rail
I take anything posted by TOC Twitter feeds with a pinch of salt - I suspect they are only really meant to deal with such questions as "why has my train been standing at X for half an hour". ; As it happens all six were mk.4 sets on Tuesday but haven't been since. On Wed 1V91 terminated at Chester and went empty to Crewe and 1W96 was 20 l/s, on Thursday 1V91/1W93/1V98 were mk.4s and on Friday 1W96 was mk.4 to Salop where it swopped sets with 175101 on 1V98, with everything else dmu. To give them their due 1W96 was swopped at the Junction on Thursday to make Fridays 1V91 a three car. |

Companies that use social media effectively use them for both marketing and customer service. TPE employed a new social manager a few years back and the first thing she did was to create a load of posts about the new livery for the 350s. |

197002 arrived at Allerton Depot on Tuesday. Northern have a contract with TfW to do maintenance presumably until Chester Depot has space for this. All time rail mileage travelled 327264 miles |

Presumably Alstom will severe ties with the Chester depot once the 175s go off-lease, especially considering they now have the Widnes facility. |

RE: Transport for Wales Rail
I think that you are correct about the future of Chester Depot. The 175s do not appear to have a future anywhere. It appears that the 77 X 197s will all be based at Chester together with the 5 X 230s. All time rail mileage travelled 327264 miles |

I thought the 230s were to be maintained at Birkenhead North EMUD, although that may be just whilst they’re on test, I suppose |
