Started at Rice Lane/Walton, to Sandhills then into Liverpool but stops tracking in Great Howard Street. 13 mins later (presumably goes via Moorfields) is tracking outside Lime Street goes to Brunswick Station, Serves St Michaels then goes down Jericho Lane and stops tracking again.

If it was a Northern Line replacement, why was it serving Lime Street? Don't Northern Line RRBs just miss out Lime Street/Central and just do Moorfields as then they can go down the strand to Brunswick?
I then question why did it go down Jericho Lane and stop tracking. A Northern Line RRB shouldn't be going down Jericho Lane surely as there are no RRB stops down there.

Seems like a strange RRB service. Walton/Rice Lane to St Michaels.

When ever rail reps are running they use lime street as the boarding/alighting place for central station due to restricted places to park outside central station.
Lime street as enough space without causing obstruction to other veichles.
