 If plans come to fruition, it is now less than two weeks before Avanti will retire their Voaygers from operations on the WCML with the takeover of the Class 805 and 807s complete. However, this journey has been a long and tortuous one and I will not be holding my breath when the timetable changes on 15.12.24! 221105 passes between the villages of Roade and Ashton working the 1D87 13.02 Euston to Chester service.

NB As it transpired, this was my final photograph of a Voyager working for AWC on the WCML. With all the Class 805s and 807s in service by the start of the new timetable (as mentioned above) the final 221s were handed back to Beacon Rail - note added 19.12.24
