Further question - is it working during the Acton Grange block?
No. Various units covering the diagram today.

11.03 ex Chester was a two car 175.

Three car 175 sharing Liverpool service with 150285 - hadn't realised these were getting wifi and both three pin and USB sockets.

Yes the plan is for all units to have WiFi/plug/usb points etc. 175002 is the first to enter service fully refurbished inside and out for TFW.

175109 is still operating the LIV-CTR service.

150254 has derailed in the yard at Chester.
RE: Transport for Wales Rail - 313201 - 26/07/2019 16:10
That's going to cause some problems for stabling of units or if a railtour comes in.

Most of the December TfW service now in RTT, looks like three hauled Cardiff-Holyheads, although the mid-day service from Holyhead currently missing, but the Crewe turn reverting to dmu. It looks like some Chester-Salop fill-in trains still to appear - I first thought resourced by reducing Cambrian trains to two cars south of Shrewsbury, but one ecs shunt shown at Shrewsbury suggests it may be a reduction of through Pwllheli portions.

At long last Llandudno and Conway Valley go year round on Sudays.

Why has Llandudno especially been devoid of trains on Winter Sundays. I'm sure the business leaders will be welcoming there introduction with open arms.
Winter services on a Sunday down the Conway Valley I'm just not sure there is the business when the Ffestiniog railway isn't running. Sounds like a TfW inspired aspiration for the tourist industry.
RE: Transport for Wales Rail - mikestone - 27/07/2019 17:08
I must say a I think a more pressing requirement is for an improvement over the one train an hour, including the Virgin services, on the main line.
;
Sunday Pwllheli-Aberystwyth goes from one a day in winter and three in summer to five all year, plus a couple of extra trains between Aberystwyth and Shrewsbury - unless they have Sunday in the standard week that might be a struggle.

I am looking at a service from Cardiff Central to Holyhead (1W91).

What would be the return journey for this service?
