Title: Strange diversion for Engineering works! Post by: IanC on October 18, 2009, 14:38:03 As seen on the Engineering works page on the Arriva Trains Wales website:-
Quote from: ATW Start: 19/10/2009 End: 23/10/2009 Engineering work affecting Arriva Trains Wales from Monday 19 until Friday 23 October 2009 The following changes will apply: Monday only 23:22 Chester to Manchester Piccadilly will be diverted via Norwich. A bus will run between Chester and Manchester Piccadilly. Journey times will be extended by up to 65 minutes If i wasn't working that night, I'd wanna be on that train, to see what happens!!

Oddly enough whenever I travelled on it they missed out the Salford call and went via Saltford instead. ;D
