    #TBT this 'little house' lives in our railway cutting. Known to be at least 100yrs old, track workers would have their breaks in here! 🏚🛤🔧☕️

    We were shocked to discover someone has vandalised a drainage pump in Cheshire. The wires have been cut, causing severe flooding on the line between Chester and Hooton, stopping @merseyrail services from running today. @BTP are investigating. More: gloo.to/F56c

    We're using thermal imaging cameras to look for Bailey on the track, in the tunnels and above the cutting. #savebailey #savebaileythecat

    ⚠️ Severe flooding across the North West means many services are unable to run. @TPExpressTrains and @northernassist are advising passengers not to travel. Sorry about this. We're doing our best to drain the water. Photos below are of flooding in the Warrington area 👇

    The very final stage of our huge transformation has been completed! Track, platform & signalling upgrades will enable us to run longer trains, with more space & more seats for passengers, more reliably. Huge thanks to passengers for your patience throughout #KeepLiverpoolMoving
