I knew that - what I meant was that some of the extended trains aren't missing from OTT altogether *and so* are the Manchester-Leeds trains which start later because the intermediate stop are covered by the new Rochdale locals. Slightly mystified as to why they only operate in the peaks, given that there is pressure from GM to re-instate a second train per hour at Moston.
