Some interesting amendments to timetables and diversions of services will occur:
All Glasgow to London and vice versa trains to run through Manchester, boarding only at Piccadily southbound and alighting only northbound. They are being merged with the current XX:55 Manchester to London via Crewe services, thus meaning the Glasgow to London services and vice versa will additionally call at Stockport, Wilmslow, Crewe and MKC. Also creating a short term plan extra later service to Glasgow arriving at 01:06.

London to Glasgow services will depart London at XX:40 each hour (using the path of XX:40 to Manchester) thus increasing the journey time by approximately 1 hour between the two.
