It made up time as it missed calling at some stations into Lime St

Its a favoured ploy to avoid a full cancellation the service becoming a part cancellation , only thing is for passengers at the intermediate stations the passengers just class it as a cancellation.

Fantastic if you rely on a service like this to work. Great way if you want to see your boss, just turn in late.

More often than not its nothing to do with avoiding a full cancellation,it's the only way to get the diagram back on schedule, Merseyrails Chester line being a case in point

If it was to get the sertvice back to time it would be a full cancellation , but as long as the journey stops in service at the end point its not a cancellation as such and can avoid the PPM being damaged im sure .
Then you have the intermediate station passenger who just see it as a cancellation and i am sure not happy to see a train rolling through with passengers on , enough to get passengers blood boiling im sure .

Is that an ex-FNW, ex-ATN or ex-LM unit?
EDIT: Found out it's one with the original type of seating so not an ex-FNW one, so hopefully it'll get new seats under Arriva.

Ex LM Porterbrook unit

This was swopped as it was earlier on 142016 working on the Wigan line,this is all due to 319383 failing for the third day in a row.There was a 142 on Lime St to Warrington BQ services yesterday due to 319383's failure.
