A BUS service is replacing Avanti West Coast trains between Warrington Bank Quay and Liverpool Lime Street this afternoon, Thursday. 

This is due to problems on the overhead line.

Commuters wishing to travel on this service can still use their tickets on Merseyrail, Northern, TransPennine, East Midlands, and Transport for Wales services.

Liverpool-bound services may be diverted via Warrington Bank Quay and London Euston bound services may start from Warrington Bank Quay.
