It's hardly like the Class 319s are failing every single day is it?

Other trains of various types have broken down on the approaches to Liverpool Lime Street before - these things happen and are certainly not exclusive to the 319s. I'm not saying that the Class 319s are brilliant units but in terms of seating capacity and journey times they are far superior to any of the diesel units previously used on the Liverpool to Manchester, Preston and Warrington routes
