So one random unadvertised bus replacement which will no doubt be empty to allow northern management to report back 'we tried running buses but they weren't used, can we ditch them,?'
When I looked on Saturday night, the buses were showing on National Rail Enquiries, at least on the Manchester - Crewe route.
Andy Burnham has been very vociferous about the temporary timetable and the need to run RRBs and gave Northern senior management a massive rollocking at the TfN meeting.
He also insisted they organised ticket acceptance on the next train, irrespective of company, during cancellations.
