I enjoyed that (and the one before).
I had an enforced couple of days off this week so it gave me a chance to look into the journey and learn a bit about it.
Thanks Paul.

I am a tad confused here. I think that after Parkside (2nd station) should have been Parkside (1st station) then we continue via the currently open station of Newton le Willows and via the east to south chord at Earlestown to join the Newton and Warrington Railway - and so on to:
Vulcan Foundry Halt.
