I live quite close to this irregular service branch line, when i get the opportunity (which is not that often considering the service levels!!) I use it. Have done twice quite recently, I travelled on Easter Monday (full service !!) Port Sunlight- Ellesmere Port-Helsby-Frodsham, and also yesterday, Frodsham-Helsby-Ince & Elton-Warrington BQ and back to Frodsham.
I often thought I was the only person ever on this line, but on both these occasions there were other passengers (not many mind, you didnt have to rush for seats !!) . So some people know about it, even with the very limited service. I got off at Ince & Elton yesterday....only person who did, joinned same train on its return back from Ellesmere Port, very lonely station, but quite a lot of housing around, so I would think locals would like a more usable service...maybe one day.
