Services on routes not mentioned as having December 2017 enhancements will remain as they are until May 2018 or later. I think Liverpool to Calder Valley was a 2018 or 2019 improvement anyway but Liverpool to Manchester Airport via Warrington, Chester to Calder Valley, Mid-Cheshire line enhancements, Buxton line enhancements, Atherton line enhancements, Manchester Airport to Cumbria to Wigan (and presumably also TPE enhancements) all originally scheduled in for December 17 look to have been put back until May 2018 or later.

Is this when (May 2018) the brand new trains will arrive?
