RE: Merseyrail
Since the omission of Bromborough Rake and Green Lane the Chester service has become more reliable. The real question everyone wants answers for is how long this alteration will be for. The new 777 units have better acceleration and braking capability. |

RE: Merseyrail
I should imagine the alteration will stay in place till the 777s are running on the Chester services. The 507/8s have been struggling to keep time lately on that route. But now down to 55 serviceable units…….for a short time, anyway! |

With credit to a post on the Mersey Railways group on Facebook 508143 is already at Newport docks for scrapping, the bodywork on it is apparently rotten and 508140 is to be withdrawn imminently. |

The destination display at the Ormskirk end wasn't working and looked as if it had been removed, but the Liverpool end destination display appeared to be working. |
