08527 was sent to Trafford Park instead and the shunter to arrive at Garston is 08924. This loco is no stranger to the area having been new to Edge Hill in 1962 transferring to Allerton when closed in 1966. It left the area in 1990.
The last northbound car train operated by DBS was this morning operated by 90035. The return was due to be taken south by 66736. From next week CLss 66 are due to take over the service.
