Late Electric

And this evening, an eight car train with 319364 leading 319367 whizzed through Huyton on 5Z19 20:22 Allerton Diesel Multiple Unit Depot to Manchester Victoria, marking, as far as I know, the first electric working from Ordsall Lane Junction to Victoria.  So, with the possible exception of paperwork signoff for this last section, that's the whole of phase two up and running.  (Assuming this test is successful.)

Oh, and some autotransformer work remains to be completed as well.

    I can confirm that the train reached Manchester Victoria. I have seen photos of the train on facebook.
