RE: Northern Rail

RE: Northern Rail
AFAIK its around 13 diagrams? The Kirkbys interwork with Manchester-WiganTurnbacks and may also work with Southports?

Theres a lot of complaints that the Southport line is approx 80% Pacer operated these days with the kirkby line and other routes gaining the 150/156's
