Under government instruction Northern have issued an invitation to tender for multi-mode multiple units of up to 450 new vehicles. This is to get a price for Sprinter stock replacement.

It won't be 195s as they are diesel multiple units, not multi-mode multiple units. Numbering of any new trains will likely be in the 7xxs, whoever manufactures them.

Can anyone throw any light on 319-timed test runs between Liverpool and Crewe today?

There appears to have been a seperate 730 run.

Sorry I was looking for STP but actually they are WTT starting this week. I must say I hadn't realised the Crewe-Manchester service already involved ECS working between Allerton and Crewe - it surely involves huge expense maintaining route knowledge

From December the morning Liverpool-Ellesmere Port starts at Helsby.
