    I've posted times for 23 Jul with 45305 at uksteam.info, but only for the section north of Liverpool. Unfortunately I have no info for Crewe-Liverpool and return, or indeed whether passengers are being conveyed on this section. Maybe someone can advise ?

    Thanks for all those of you standing at the lineside to record out steady progress, some great pics and videos, a good day all round I think it's fair to say. By the end of August I may however be getting a case of cabin fever as I'm down for every run from Crewe whether via Liverpool or Manchester.
