An interesting video has appeared on Avanti's YouTube Channel showing a Pendolino completely gutted inside midway through overhaul. https://youtu.be/HSlsmxSHpco --- 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. |

Because of Runcorn box being closed during tomorrow’s dispute, the Lime St to Euston trains are diverted via Earlestown and Warrington BQ |

Ditton and Halton Jn are also permanently closed. The only services out of Lime Street on strike days are booked via Chat Moss so it is likely to be a case of only having certain workstation panels manned with whoever is available, managers etc. |

These have been given paths via Chat Moss on strike days, instead of the usual path via Northwich and Denton. Therefore, Chat Moss is open for passenger traffic too. Stockport is completely closed also. All the Manchester to Birmingham and London services that are operating are running via the Styal line. |
