Probably cancelled between Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Airport due to severe late running for some reason so that later services aint delayed as well , its called delay management .
according to the speaker there was no train available to do the service, it was said at 10:40 so i dont think it would be down to that

1B71 0942 Doncaster to Manchester Airport

This train was cancelled at Sheffield due to an issue with the train crew (TG)

I presume a booked relief was not available on arrival at Sheffield.
Thanks mate
12:20 service from Manchester to doncaster is called due to no train to run the service
What is going to be the current state of affairs with regards the Windermere and Barrow in Furness branch services , considering the service is at present operated by Transpennine when the class 350's take over the main Manchester - Scotland service.

Will the through services be lost to a stub service terminating at Oxenholme and Lancaster respectively .

I think a 3-car shuttle is most likely.

Long term, with TPE/Northern probably being merged, I suspect a Class 153, maybe 156 in summer, will be used.

Even longer term, in the distant future, probably electrification.
Got told by a freind that several 185s may be turned into 2 car and 4 car by reshuffling the current vechiles.
