Do you think there is capacity within Merseyrail to make the system more akin to a metro system rather than specifically timetabled.
I think improvement at Central would be required for capacity but also more southern destinations on the Northern Line to enable through running? Perhaps turning around additional services at LSP to avoid any potential conflicts at Hunts Cross.
Would using the spare platform at James Street for more services during peak and again turning around additional services short for instance Hooton using the additional platform space in existence create capacity?
Historically there were semi fast services but I suspect that would require a fair bit of capacity being built in at key points?
I think need exists just how do you squeeze it out without having to find substantial funding
