TfW have today announced the details of the December timetable changes. It needs a bit of study to find all the changes, but we think they only affect Sundays at the moment. There is no promise of a change in rolling stock.
For Crewe Shrewsbury it says:
Most Marches services have stops removed between Shrewsbury and Crewe (replaced by a Shrewsbury to Crewe local shuttle service). This gives much faster direct journey times
In addition, extra stopping services between Crewe and Shrewsbury, will give people in Shropshire and Cheshire a significant number of new services when travelling on a Sunday. This means we will increase from 9 services per day to 16.
We will have to put the old and new tables together to see which stops on the long ditance trains have been deleted. The additional shuttle is welcome.
