I wouldn't bother with 365s. Much as I like them, adding another type to Northern isn't a good idea, especially as they are 4 x 20m vehicles when the EMU fleet will be all 23m vehicles of either 3-car (323/331) or 4-car (331/333) types. The 769s are an obvious exception on a "needs must" basis.Good point about taking more 323s or even the 365.
No I didn't mean added extra services into Manchester, I think you'll find that the Victoria train currently terminates in Preston so could be extended to Blackpool South.
Apologies on the Blackpool - joining those services does have some logic, depending on not importing delays into the Manchester area.
