RE: Northern Trains Ltd
Southport and Mid-Cheshire line services to continue running at half their usual standard frequency next week but services will be booked as 4 car 150/156s instead of 2 car 150/156s. Hazel Grove to Blackpool services will be 6 car 331s. Clitheroe to Rochdale services will be booked as 150+153 formations. Buxton line to get enhanced peak time service, plus services will get strengthened to be 4 car 150/156s. (Is someone in Buxton sleeping with someone in Northern's management?) Marple routes will be a mix of 2 and 4 car 150/156s. Liverpool to Blackpool will be a mix of 3 and 4 car trains. (No unit type specified.) |

I wonder if given the current situation whether northern might consider bringing back the 319s that were put in storage. I say that because if the distance thing is to be maintained then that would be the way to do it even if 1 coach has to be temporarily removed from the sets dropping them down to 3 cars and coupling them into 6s or leave them as 4 car sets and couple to form 8s if necessary. |

Centre cars can't be removed from the 319s without sending them off for electrical rewiring. |

No 319s have been put 'in storage' they have been off leased. --- 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. |

If all 17 operational 319s are available all will 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. |

331105 is the last of the 331/1s to transfer to skipton, being used as a mess room at Blackpool north, the 331/0s are all based at allerton with 029-031 still to be delivered, unless they're bringing them in on the quiet. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jonesy3001/ If it's not in london they dont want to know |
