A 10.41 Manchester-Chester, all stations from Stockport, has appeared in RTT from May, so it appears the first casualty of the electrification delay is the Manchester-Greenbank service.

I noticed that as well but I'm not reading too much in to it as the xx:41 services appearing previously were semi-fasts to Greenbank (there some strong objections from MCRUA to some stations losing direct Chester services) and the initial request for paths for an xx:09 all-stops to Chester didn't get approved. However, changing the Chester to the xx:41 path could also be to reduce the number of diagrams required as the previous plan was for diagrams to run a return Chester working followed by a return Greenbank working.

Does anybody know if what’s happened in Page Moss has affected Lime st-St Helens/Earlestown services? Trains are delayed or cancelled and can’t find anything on the Echo other than Page Moss incident

Yes I was told by a member of staff at Lime St that the was a fatality on the line but not told specifically which line(s) it was affecting. Fortunately the Preston-Sth Prkwy service ran but that was your lot when I looked earlier. Now a normal service is more or less running with the exception of Lime St- Warrington BQ and some Lime St- Oxford Road which are cancelled. I've since found the incident was between Lime St and Earlestown. My mind boggles be as to why St Helens had a limited service for such a long time.
