Northern Rail has warned passengers that services in the North West are subject to disruption and short notice cancellations.
The rail operator, which runs a number of services across the Liverpool City Region, said that it has seen a number of cancellations since it last changed its timetable in May 2022. It says that there are a number of factors behind the disruption, citing staff sickness and industrial relations issues.
Despite the issues that it is facing, Northern is not reducing its timetable, unlike Avanti West Coast and TransPennine Express. The two train companies, which both run services from Liverpool Lime Street, are using amended timetables, which have led to difficulties for customers.
