Service disruption this evening between Wigan and Southport/Kirkby/Huyton due to flooding
How long have kirkbys interworked with the Bolton line? i caught a Bolton-Moses gate train Friday which was 142041 got a 150 back to Wigan 15011? then ended up on 142041 from Wigan-Orrell and 142041 Orrell-Wigan again the conductor was confused at what i was doing.
142052? freshly repainted on Southports i mean fresh as in smelled and looked fresh today coupled to 150274
Also can anyone id which 142 was on the last kirkby of the day as the roof was falling apart inside in the dms end.
does anybody know how many northern DMU'S do the southport-manchester line and kirkby-manchester line?
AFAIK its around 13 diagrams? The Kirkbys interwork with Manchester-WiganTurnbacks and may also work with Southports?
Theres a lot of complaints that the Southport line is approx 80% Pacer operated these days with the kirkby line and other routes gaining the 150/156's
