Going off the rails: January 2005
http://blackrodstation.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Going off the rails. Inane ramblings and occasional insight generally related to Blackrod Station. Friday, January 21, 2005. Problems now for the Blackrod commuter. Although the 17:33 would have been fine, the 17:50 no longer stops at Blackrod, and we are faced with a long wait for the 18:10. I opt to board the 17:50 and arrange to be collected from Lostock where the train stops. Posted by phil at 11:55 pm. Brown Alert in Blackrod.

And this time it's serious. Blackrod is seeing the most significant reduction in its train service in the 18 years which I have faithfully been descending the hill and climbing the bridge. Let's look at how individual services might be affected. Currently the 0811 is timetabled to take 36 minutes to reach Piccadilly (cue rye sm...
