    Ticket acceptance between TfW and Merseyrail

    Just checking times for trains out of Lime St and noticed the 1356 Lime St-Chester via Runcorn (TfW) showing cancelled, stating ‘No ticket acceptance in place on other routes’. Looking on RTT, TfW have cancelled all those services until 1556. Given Merseyside are running a normal Sunday...

    0644 Llandudno Jcn to Manchester Airport (Saturdays)

    Bidston-Wrexham timetable quirks show up in the Times today...

    Upton (Wirral) is cited in the Sunday Times today as the station with the most late trains in the country (99.8%) - an interesting consequence of the timetabling sleight of hand that allows what’s essentially an hour long journey to be run as an hourly service with just two intensively-worked...
