They will all be renumbered to /9s due to the PIS being different to those already in EMR’s fleet. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

Northern have been using non-PRM spec 150s without any apology. They haven't even managed to get their guards to ensure announcements are made if the CIS system fails either. |

Crossed it at Alsager at about 1430 presumably running late on the 1407 ex Crewe. 156404 also in use today on the Crewe - Derby so two out of the three diagrams at least were not 153s. That is quite rare during the week. |

RE: Abellio East Midlands Railway
I wonder if there have been complaints about the non-PRM compliance? |

I see more 156s but few 158s on the line to Liverpool now. Mind you, I rode a 158 from Stoke to Derby on Friday. Then on the way back it was a double 153. So, allocations of DMUs seem quite fluid now. |

RE: Abellio East Midlands Railway
A food for thought idea ; When the Liverpool - Norwich service is split at Nottingham and the Nottingham - Liverpool gets revised to start at Derby , wouldnt extending the service back to Crewe be a good idea. It maybe that the service cant get through Crewe - Alsager single track and Stoke on Trent areas at the right time for the service to a viable service , another problem maybe Grantham to Stoke Tunnel on the ECML. Timetable Planning is an art form. |

RE: Abellio East Midlands Railway
You mean the Nottingham - Norwich section. I personally think there should be better overlaps between the 2 sections, so possibly Norwich - Sheffield and Liverpool - Peterborough would maintain better connections provided the paths are available. |
