Is Holyhead to Liverpool via the Borderlands Line between Shotton and Bidston a valid route? It doesn't appear to be mapped, but it's the shortest (time) route on Sundays when taking the 14:50 ferry from Dublin.
It would appear to be either shorter or similar in distance to the route via Chester and the Wirral Line, but I'm only basing this on its appearance on a map as I can't find the actual lengths - is it indeed the shortest route or within the three mile tolerance?
Are there any other valid routes from Holyhead to Liverpool apart from this and via Chester and the Wirral Line before the direct trains via Runcorn start later in the year?
