Northern (Arriva Rail North)

RE: Northern (Arriva Rail North)
Northern have published the track access amendment application for this December.
There is now to be an off-peak half hourly Manchester-Blackburn service, which wasn't in the proposals I had seen. Also included are calls by Airport services at Patricroft and at Low Moor by Leeds-Hebden Bridge ( by which I presume they mean either Victoria or Blackpool) services.
Low Moor is perhaps interesting on two counts - one being that having been in a boxed note in the NRT for years, now it's open it's completely absent, and the other being that when Grand Central applied to call there they made a point of the fact there was only currently one tph there, while the plans had promised two.
