Its been said somewhere that Pacers will not be withdrawn when the Class 319s enter service, I think the plan is that the extra capacity will be spread between the Liverpool/Manchester Depots. I for one hope this means improvements for the last Liverpool - Wigan service on a Saturday Night as am getting sick of the 4 Car standing load full of Drunk people thing
Am also told that the Class 319s are due out early Feb.
