Thanks for that. Missing out stations when late appears to be a current trend on the Liverpool - Wigan line, which is not good as it means that some stations will only get an hourly service. Yesterday the cancelled diagram was followed by the 150 diagram, so as well as some of the smaller stations not having had a train for an hour (on some hours), the next service also only had half the capacity of the normal service.
