Looking at the 319's again , i would be interested to know which unit or units are the most failure prone of that type .

319362 (Northern Powerhouse
!!).was initially the black sheep of the fleet when EMU's first went live. Other ones off the top of my head are 319366, 319368 and 319383.

I presume with engineering work between Blackpool & Preston today that 319's will be on Liverpool - Preston service.

Nice combination of 156 and 142 , im sure we know where the vast majority will want to travel on that combination in the class 156

Did a Lancashire Day Ranger last month we had a 150/142 combination from MCV to BBN. Most passengers including our group went to the rear unit which was 142090.
A lot depends on were the exit from the platform is.

The debranding process has started!
Saw a few units today with Northern names and web addresses removed. On the 319's only the small Northern logo at the cab ends of the DTS coaches has gone, the Northern Electrics branding has stayed.
Noted that the Northern logo on quite a few station signs has been covered over too.

What going on at Lime st around the ticket checking area? I thought if they were installing the automated machines they'd be in by now.
St. Helens Central saw a ticket inspector this morning at the stairs by platform 1 (Wigan bound). Fist time I've seen this at St. Helens. Transport police also there with either a queue of customers or suspects/witnesses. By this afternoon the inspector had gone.

They aren't installing automatic ticket gates at Lime St for now so things will remain as they are for the time being
