From an internal memo sent by a friend who works there (Wirral Line):The Wirral Line definitely won't all be 777s tomorrow. A small number of Wirral Line crews are still untrained on the 777s.
2N01 and 2N02 are both 507s this morning.From an internal memo sent by a friend who works there (Wirral Line):
" Due to Aintree week starting Monday 8th April, there is a full 777 service on all circuits. All job numbers remain the same however some content and turn lengths will be marked as ADDL on the daily sheet. Please check with RC accordingly for any changes to your diagrams."
That's what we like to hear!2N01 and 2N02 are both 507s this morning.
2N01 and 2N02 are both 507s this morning.
A straight answer is currently no unless someone in the 'back office' knows and has not released the possible date. Also still 10 Class 777's to arrive in Merseyside yet with three of them still abroad, so I think they need to arrive before the last of the Class 507's are seen off!Apologies if it appears elsewhere in this thread, but is there a confirmed final day in service for the 507s?
No, these are two separate three-car workings. No call for six-cars on the New Brighton Line.Six car, I hope.
Great, so pretty certain to be able to ride on some on 22nd April.A straight answer is currently no unless someone in the 'back office' knows and has not released the possible date.

Thanks for that. Could you and/or anyone else, at some point before 10am tomorrow morning, provide me with tomorrow's allocations for the remaining 507s please?507017 is allocated to West Kirby tomorrow, full allocations are not yet in Trust, I'll have a look in an hour or so, once they are all in, i'll post them
i'm on nights tonight, so will post as soon as Merseyrail have put the allocations in!Thanks for that. Could you and/or anyone else, at some point before 10am tomorrow morning, provide me with tomorrow's allocations for the remaining 507s please?

Hi thereGood morning, may be a little early yet but are there any 507’s in trust for today?

Presumably this, 5Q88 from Crewe South Yard to Sims:Just heard a 507 move through Crewe (heard a 37, saw a 507), any idea of what/where
507020 and 507031 in towPresumably this, 5Q88 from Crewe South Yard to Sims:

Picture posted on Mersey Railways 2.0 Facebook group shows 37800 running round at Crewe. It will be the units that moved from Birkenhead North to Crewe just before Easter, I think?

015 is the rear unit and is definitely not one of the better ones left. 010 isn't too bad.Edit: just figured out to be 010 or 015, the rear unit heading toward Southport
Has 011 gone south now then?021 is in Southport sidings today
I don’t know, 2 consists are in the sidings, front of 1 is 021 I believe (will check on my way out) although it is possible it and 011 are there or maybe just 011, I deducted 011 from a photo at the end of the dayHas 011 gone south now then?
