There will be more changes to the Merseyrail network next week.
As the roll-out of the new Class 777 trains progresses, changes are being made to the West Kirby and New Brighton lines. From Monday, July 31, Merseyrail has announced a number of services will be cancelled due to support driver training and helping with the phased roll out.
Suzanne Grant, Commercial Director at Merseyrail, said: "Our driver training programme is moving across to the Wirral line as we head towards the next exciting phase of the roll out of the new trains. This does require a small number of temporary cancellations on the West Kirby and New Brighton lines while this happens.
