It would be cool to coordinate an effort to follow a train from one side (Sandbach) to the other (Northwich) at various points. I will try to check out this train on the way home from work tonight.The Shillitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245911585697163088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3524335932263879070.post-42211733843340041802013-08-04T19:36:08.422+01:002013-08-04T19:36:08.422+01:00Thanks for the additional information - in particu...Thanks for the additional information - in particular to 'The Shillito' who gave us the tip-off about the Virgin Saturday morning ECS train in the first place.

It passes Sandbach at 19:01, arriving Middlewich at 19:17 dep. 20:03. Search for Middlewich in the timetable here: http://www.networkrail.co.uk/browse%20documents/timetables/working%20timetable%20%28wtt%29/may%202013%20-%20december%202013/cz/cz05.pdf<br />Other entries show trains passing through Middlewich station.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3524335932263879070.post-7863436399710456552013-07-31T09:54:58.392+01:002013-07-31T09:54:58.392+01:00In the Working Timetable, section CF03 details the...In the Working Timetable, section CF03 details the movement of trains on the Stockport to Chester via Northwich line, which also includes the Middlewich line. Section CM01 details movement from Crewe, and others, to Manchester and includes the movement of the empty stock movement from Crewe through to Sandbach.<br /><br />The head code for this empty stock movement in particular is 5D40 leaving Crewe C.S. (carriage sidings) at 07:57 to Holyhead. The exact timings are as follows:<br /><br />Crewe C.S. departs at 07:57<br />Arrives in Crewe station (platform 5) at 08:00 for change of staff.<br />Departs Crewe at 08:03<br />Passes through Crewe Sydney Bridge at 08:05½<br />Passes through Sandbach at 08:10½<br /><br />08:35½ is the time listed for departing Middlewich following a stop for "operating reasons" of about a minute. This is likely to be the location of the old station, though I can't say for sure.<br /><br />Arrival at Northwich SOUTH Junction at 08:50½.<br /><br />The train will then reverse at Northwich to continue on to Chester, passing through: Northwich WEST Junction at 08:52½, <br />Greenbank at 08:56, <br />Mouldsworth at 09:05, <br />and Mickle Trafford at 09:10. <br />The train stops at Chester (platform 3) at 09:14½, again for "operating reasons".<br />The train then continues onward to Holyhead.<br /><br />The Working Timetables are available here http://www.networkrail.co.uk/WorkingTimetable.aspx with May 2013 - December 2013 being the latest.The Shillitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245911585697163088noreply@blogger.com
