Rumours are LNR have a headache. They need to get the 350/2s returned to Porterbrook ASAP but the RMT aren't happy with the prospect of 5 car 730s stopping at stations like Winsford, when the doors won't be released on the rear set. It seems they don't want to accept the same method of door release Northern have introduced at short platforms when using the 195s and 331s.

As an aside has there been any update on LNR's application to run some Euston to Crewe services through to Manchester Victoria via Warrington? https://www.londonnorthwesternrailway.co...manchester
