06/03/2020 90019 'Multi Modal Leads Ex-LNER 82231 & 90036 'Driver Jack Mills' on 3K83 Blackpool North - Crewe Carriage Sidings L&NWR seen here passing through Kirkham, where it was scheduled to stop, however it passed through at speed. These trains were run in prepration for the new services to be operated by Grand Central which was due to start in the May timetable change to London Euston, unfortunately due to COVID-19 pandemic being declared only a couple of weeks later these services never came to fruition and were subsequently knocked on the head. A real shame as the sight of 90's on Loco Hauled stock on the West Coast Mainline would've been a welcome return.
