As a northerner now exiled down south, I've lost track with what rolling stock typically operates on Northern routes.
Could someone please confirm what stock typically operates the Leeds <-> Blackpool route, and the Manchester Victoria <-> Blackpool routes?
(The background to this is that I'm helping plan trips for my Mum from Durham to Preston/Blackpool, trying to cut down the number of changes but also keep her on what she calls 'decent trains'! So a 185 would be fine, but probably not a 152/153. 158 presumably somewhere in the middle!)
Thank you for any help!
