Frustrating that the timings of the Northern morning arrivals at Manchester Vic from Chester/Warrington (to Leeds) mean missing the connection by 3 minutes or a 50-minute wait.

Now appears to have been fixed.

The current offer is open for journeys until March 1st but no tickets at all are available on their site for Feb 29.

Northern don't seem to have realised that February has 29 days this year.

Had my first run on a 777 yesterday (013). 10 mins late out of Chester, seemingly because of door problems. At Spital we were informed that it would run non-stop to Moorfields - maybe understandable, but odd not to stop at Hamilton Square for connections to New Brighton and West Kirby.

Can anyone say if it's possible to buy these in advance? Specifically, using a DB credit voucher which expires in June towards the cost of a July card?

Short but high - over the Dee between Chester and Saltney, adjacent to the racecourse, with no access during race meetings.

Excellent - thanks.

Thanks for quick reply. The wording isn't very clear. Grateful to hear of anyone else's experience.

A quick query on this - is it necessary to nominate times for outward and return legs? It doesn't seem to state so explicitly, just that changes can be made 'fee free'. I'd be sure of the time of my outward leg, but not the time of my return.

Never heard an owl during many long waits at Hooton (though I have at Spital).

One of a well-known local 50s jazz trio alongside Conway Park and Hamilton Square.

Holy different.

Thanks for your replies. What confuses me is the reference to 'every day', which to me implies every day, not just Mon-Fri.

I don't pretend to understand 'Unpublished Restrictions', but from what I can see, fares with code FB are currently unavailable. Is that correct?
