I got the information from Quails Maps!

I got my information from the Sectional Appendix and a class 319 traction manual!

It will be interesting to see how the Network Rail signallers do with these Liverpool - Preston services then , all really depends on stand time at the preston end of the route .

Will the electric units continue on from Liverpool Lime street to Liverpool South Parkway ?

No reason why they couldn't.

The services virtually cross at Preston, I hope they don't go for the option of a very tight turnaround. Time will tell!

319362 has been out yesterday and today for Driver training runs, doing four trips each day.

Newly refurbished 319363 is on its way from Wolverton to Allerton tonight.

Only got as far as Crewe due to the OHLE being isolated at Allerton.

319363 arrived at Allerton this morning.

319362 was out on Driver training runs today and should be out again tomorrow and Tuesday.

Any idea when we will see the up and running .

I am sure the management at Northern can not wait now to get electric trains running from Liverpool to Manchester .

All kinds of rumours, but nothing concrete. 16th Feb still being talked about!
