What Northern traction will end up on these routes? (North West)

[Grannyjoans]

I've seen the new timetable for May 2018 and it has new services on it. When the Pacers go and all the cascaded stock arrives and the new units are in service (in 2019 or 2020) what stock will end up on these services ?

Kirkby - Manchester Victoria
Wigan Wallgate - Manchester Victoria
Southport - Blackburn


The new Wigan - Alderley Edge & Wigan - Stalybridge is this down for 319 flex (769) ?

Is Southport - Leeds going to be 170's ?

Wigan NW - Lime St All Stations Stoppers to remain 319 ? I can't help feel the 331's better acceleration would come in use here

Also seen stated the following servicesare going to be new units:

Lime Street to Blackpool North - 331's
Manchester Airport to Barrow (via Wigan NW) - 195's but the services to Windermere will only be 319 flex

I think that is mostly correct, however I think I read on another thread that the 331s aren't expected to be diagrammed on any services to/from Liverpool.

All of which as it is now I would imagine but I don't even think northern know the answer to that yet..given it's now February though and there are still no signs of the 769's being completed or tested etc I would imagine they will also being put back towards December.
