In previous iterations of the timetable there have been booked 323s to Wigan,not many admittedly.

I did have a mega rare one on a BPN-LIV a few years ago possibly the only time a 323 has been on one.

There was an early morning turn last year LIV-WGN-LIV which then went on to Chat Moss. As Wigan crews do not yet sign 323s any workings on the line at present would have to be out and back Liverpool crews.

Northern have suspended all services on some lines tomorrow and are shutting down the rest at 4pm (rather than 8pm as planned) due to shortage of guards. They also aren't bothering to attempt to arrange any replacement buses.

Tomorrow is going to be carnage on the trains although we are unfortunately getting quite used to it on a Sunday in the North West although admittedly not quite on this scale.

The last transfer from Neville Hill to Allerton 331101 should arrive later today.
