PTE trains
I'm aware of Northern Rail having both Merseytravel 142s and Metro 144s, 155s and 158s. It seems that any of these (except the 155s) can be used on a route not in the relevant PTE area. Although I'm aware that some 142s have been cascased off lines in Merseyside and some seem to have been moved across the Pennines, to be replaced by 156s, but all the Metro trains seem to be based in Leeds. Do PTEs state that PTE sponsored trains must be used on a certain number of services in the relevant area?
