@Modern_Railways I don't think Heaton has anything to do with Grand Central anymore. The 221's are based at Crofton and go to Central Rivers for maintenance exams.
@skmpub WMPTE had intended to send them to Birmingham to convert the Outer Circle to large capacity crew operation vehicles. Hence, this was modified with a three track number blind box. The Union took one look at this and said, "No thanks." We'll stick with what we've got!
@gceccles @skmpub Avanti stations are by far the worst, screaming and shouting at people to stand clear. I've never seen similar behaviour from any other TOC staff.
Thanks for your patience while we completed the repairs to the West Coast Mainline last week.
It was a challenging project, with hundreds of tonnes of material to be removed and significant repairs having to be made to the railway.
@WestMidRailway#travelwithconfidence , what nonsense! 1722 and 1736 from Snow Hill towards Acocks Green cancelled. Next train formed of 2 coaches. Some confidence - not.
