The replacement bus arrangement which apply for engineering works change on strike days. The Mid-Cheshire line has the last Manchester bound train replaced by a bus next week but that late bus isn't operating on strike days. However, earlier bus replacement services are operating which wouldn't have operated if there wasn't a strike.

One thing which has had very little publicity, is that there will be a Preston-Ormskirk, and Wigan-Kirkby services operating on Sunday

It is directly connected to the Lime St blockade

Was no Preston to Ormskirk service a month or so ago when Merseyside Transport Trust had there open day as Burscough Station was closed.

This must be a new thing

Are trains to Lime Street diesel or electric this week. I had assumed diesel but the Engineering Access Statement doesn't make any reference to being blocked to electric traction, but does refer to a shuttle service, which I seem to recall was the original intention, with connections at Edge Hill?
