This is due to E Conditions imposed between Hooton and Chester after an earlier power surge.

Im led to believe E conditions imposes a hefty time penalty on services on the Chester line where there is large sections of high speed running which is not really possible under them conditions .

It does look like its has given a penalty of about 4.5 minutes in each direction.

I take it these 'E' conditions are the reason for the Up services not currently calling at Capenhurst?

Fish plates broken at Rock Ferry and Leeds St today causing minor disruption. Is it the weather that has given Merseyrail such a bad run of fortune?

RE: Merseyrail
It must be something climate related. It's the 507's that have suffered with fires/smoke. Do you reckon this is conpressor related?
