Last time I was in Manchester victoria, I was there to see the help for heroes. While I was waiting I saw a few 158s destined for York. Are 158s usually used on this service? (PS: the trains started from manchester)
If this is the case then I may begin to use them instead of first transpennine 170s from piccadilly. Both trains pass through leeds, so at a guess the routes join up after Manchester.
Oh yes why am I going? To see what has replaced Mallard in the NRM.
Ta very much
