Today 507001 visited the Litchurch Lane test track again. This time carrying guests from ALSTOM as part of a celebration of the success of The Greatest Gathering.

We’ll have more to share in the coming days. In the meantime, enjoy this noisy departure 😁

A historic moment on this day last year: the last ever run of a 507 under its own power on #Merseyrail, as 507029 and 507003 travel ECS from Southport to Birkenhead North depot for decommissioning. Our member Ross McCall captured this video of the units passing through Hightown.

Our simulator in action, powered by tscontrollers.com

Our simulator isn’t just a driving sim: TS Controllers has also incorporated guard control panels, so you can operate the doors and give the “ding-ding” signal! Check it out at the Rainhill Christmas Model Railway Show this Saturday!

Over the past few months we’ve been making some improvements to our cab simulator, making it even better than it was at The Greatest Gathering.

Based around a driver’s desk adapted by TS Controllers, it will be available for visitors to the Rainhill Model Railway Show this Saturday. See you there!
