Battery trains will begin operating each hour between Liverpool Central and Headbolt Lane.

The battery technology removes the need for a live third rail, which could enable the Merseyrail network to run in places previously inaccessible, including as far as Manchester, Wrexham, Warrington, Preston and Runcorn.

Exciting development!
