331s also affected around 20 new units are out of use following the problem found on them all. The issue has something to do with the axles.

Yeah, it looks like cracks are appearing round the yaw dampers

The Oxford Road extension of the 10:00 isn't all that useful as it runs just ahead of the Liverpool to Norwich service, which also forms a direct Stockport to Oxford Road train.

These trains appear to have been withdrawn again - anyone notice when they finished?

There is an "engineering works" pdf on the website which shows them, but RTT doesn't, nor does the journey planner.

The previous timetable Northern uploaded to their website was uploaded under the improvement works section and had an expiry date of the Saturday before Easter Sunday. Also those services had a footnote on that timetable that they wouldn't operate on Good Friday. That meant the last day they operated was Maundy Thursday, the day the schools broke up for Easter. It seemed Northern thought those services were only a necessity when the schools were open.

I wonder if someone put the wrong start date for the new timetable they've uploaded with the additional services or whether a planner has made an error.

Northern plan to have 6 x 3 car 150s in service from the May timetable change which will run Rochdale/Blackburn/Clitheroe services.
