I'm off to sample the delights of Liverpool Lime Street station. But first, I've got to get there from Leeds. Transpennine Express give three of their four types of trains the "Nova" moniker, but there's no such naming for the lowly Class 185s. Well I think that is a bit of a shame, because these Siemens Desiro-based units are pretty comfortable for regional journeys.
Oh, and between Manchester and Liverpool there's a chance to track the route of the world's first inter-city railway as trains still follow the route of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway from 1830!
