Doesn't TPX presently manage Birchwood , will this not become an Arriva Northern Station as that will be the only operator calling there .

I thought they only managed Warrington Central, which always seemed strange as they only run one train perhaps through the station.

TransPennine Express

1) Liverpool to Edinburgh Waverley via Newcastle (class 185)
2) Liverpool to Scarborough (class 185)
3) Liverpool to Glasgow Central via Preston (class 802 probably)

Northern

1) Liverpool to Manchester Airport (all stops) (class 319)
2) Liverpool to Bradford via Manchester Victoria (replacing the current all-stations local service to Victoria) (class 195)
3) Liverpool to Warrington Bank Quay (class 319)
4) Liverpool to Wigan North Western (class 319)
5) Liverpool to Preston/Blackpool (class 319)

I think the TPX Edinburgh/Glasgow services are only starting 2018/19.

Apology, it does indeed start from December 2018. It's confirm on page 51 of the pdf presentation from this website.

Thoughts are with the unidentified victim's family
A life cut short

Very sad for all involved. No doubt the family will find it hard to come to terms with and the Train Crew also.
