Reading OPSTA's latest missive apparently they are going to add an extra unit (and presumably crew, as otherwise it would achieve nothing) into these diagrams to allow a 65 minute layover between arrival from Colne and departure to Ormskirk.
In this case, why not simply split the service back up and run Blackpool S-Colne and Ormskirk-Preston on a self contained basis? The Ormskirk service could then pass at Rufford as it used to in the 1990s.
There surely doesn't seem much point in the "circuit" other than to save a unit and crew?
