Lets just see how well the new electric overhead wires stand up to this battering there taking tonight .


RE: Northern Rail - wirralbus - 05/12/2015 15:13

Due to unprecedented weather , the following services have been suspended possibly for a considerable time .

Preston - Barrow

Carlisle - Newcastle

Carlisle - Skipton

Carnforth - Skipton

At present Northern is not going to operate any replacement bus services due to the road conditions not allowing it .

also the Manchester Victoria - Burnley - Blackburn service is only running Manchester - Burnley Manchester Road.

As the weather gets worse more lines might becoming victims of the weather.
