Coppull

The now preserved 40135 hauls a refurbished Wirral Line Class 503 EMU south along the WCML near Coppull heading back to Merseyside from Horwich Works. This working travelled out from Horwich to Preston See image 19617 before reversing to run south to Birkenhead via Warrington and Ellesmere Port. Note the way the unit has been formed in the train so the (possibly modified and dedicated) brakevans were able to couple to the inner ends of the cars but not the non-standard front coupling.
