Lime Street Remodelling

The timetable for the first week of the autumn works at Liverpool Lime Street arrived in my database this morning.  Update:  I have added details of later in the period as they were released.

Here's a summary of the effects on "our" lines:

On Saturday 30 September and Sunday 01 October buses run between Lime Street and St Helens Central and between Lime Street and Manchester.

On Monday 02 to Sunday 08 October the buses are to St Helens Central and St Helens Junction.

From Monday 09 until Saturday 14 and Monday 16 to Friday 20 October, a modified service will run with two trains an hour all stations Lime Street to/from Wigan, one of which is extended to Preston; and two trains an hour all stations to/from Manchester Victoria one of which skips Patricroft and Eccles.  After about 20:00 buses replace trains between Lime Street and Huyton.
Note that these will be the only trains at Lime Street High Level, services on other routes will run from South Parkway or Hunt's Cross.

On Sunday 15 October one train an hour each way between Lime Street and Manchester Airport, and one train an hour each way between Lime Street and Preston.  These will be the only trains at Lime Street.

On Saturday 21 October, two trains an hour all stations Huyton to/from Wigan, one of which is extended to Preston; and two trains an hour to/from Manchester Oxford Road, one of which is fast between Newton and Oxford Road.  No trains at all at Lime Street.
 
On Sunday 22 October one train an hour each way between Huyton and Manchester Airport, and one train an hour each way between Huyton and Preston, with buses between Lime Street and Huyton.  No trains at all at Lime Street.

On Monday 23 October, hopefully normal service will be resumed.
