777035/053 are now here, so the fleet is now complete.
777035 is not yet in service, but 777053 has been out since last Sunday

Thanks for the information. I saw 777053 on an ECS run to North depot last Saturday. Do you know what line 053 worked on Sunday?

I don't suppose you know when 777029 entered service and which line please?
I believe 777029 has entered passenger service this week.

A small number of additional tickets are currently available to purchase, however is likely to sell out very soon.

507001 has suffered a graffiti attack whilst stabled at New Brighton.
Time will tell whether or not it will be removed before the final 507 farewell or if a different unit will be used on November 3rd.

There must have been a 777 shortage this week as 507003 has been in service on the Wirral every day so far.

507003 staying out until the end of service the past two evenings as well. I managed to catch a few rides on it working on the West Kirby line yesterday evening.

I particularly enjoy these shots someone managed to capture of arcing from 507003.
