 Passing the site of Roade station 221106 'Willem Barents' makes a fine site still wearing its Virgin West Coast livery over a year after the operator ceased its operations. Unusually, this diesel Voyager was working the 07.54 Blackpool to Euston service. Now that the line to the resort town is fully electrified services such as this ought to be formed by a Pendolino with many spare sets surely available due to the massively reduced working timetable.
