Interesting that they are prioritising Warrington-Chester and Chester-Crewe for electrification when the Rail North Electrification Task Force didn't see either as priorities: http://www.railnorth.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/EFT_Final_Report_FINAL_web.pdf (P53) The CLC line between Liverpool and Warrington was a high priority in that report so the inclusion of that as a CP6 scheme makes sense.
