It ran on Saturday as a Footex between MAN & BHM for the England v Jamaica game.... but that was load 7 I think. (today it is back to its normal length albeit top & tailed) Lets hope this time it lasts....

What days do the 90s operate?

It varies. Its on stand-by in case of voyager failure. It usually only operates Monday to Friday but it did work a Saturday the other week.

It runs depending upon Voyager availability. If virgin have enought voyagers it wont run but if there is a shortage it will run. If it runs it will run to the diagram in the first post
[EDIT]
Looks like it was out again today

Does anyone have any ideas as to whether this will be out tomorrows, as I have heard the Diversions into Vistoria have been cancelled. I'm around Birmingham anyway so if they are will have a pop. Also, do they always work the same diagram.

Yes, because I saw a report on Wednesday about 90017 on the Piccadilly. These are Cross Country, not West Coast.

AFAIK the XC standby set is very rare on a Saturday.
Not sure how solid it is M-F at the moment but is reasonably solid on its diagram when it is out
