Not sure about the numbers, though I expect demand may well fall enough that doubling-up will only be required on peak services and those which match shift changes at essential workplaces. Marginal routes like Huddersfield to Bradford or Castleford will probably end up going 2-hourly. Across Northern's area as a whole, that could well see off the 144s, maybe even the 153s.142s were only crowd busters and there are no "crowds" to speak of for a while, so unlikely.
Can Sprinters released from the Manchester area take on all 144 duties in Yorkshire?
Once normality resumes that might be a problem, but I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it!
