Cumbrian Coast 37s from May 2018

Anyone know if these will still operate as I understand the contract finishes at the end of the winter timetable ?

Still running Mon - Sat in May.

They will be restricted to Carlisle - Barrow in Furness and will run semi-fast between Whitehaven and Barrow (excluding the Sellafield workers services).

I think there is an extra train in each direction because of the removal of the trip to Preston.

So you would guess they will work a standard 05.xx, 08.xx, 11.xx, 14.xx and 17.xx pattern with no gaps and presume semi fast means mainly omitting the request stops
