I've read that the Northern 86s are to be used, Top 'n' Tail with ex-Anglia Mk2s, on a new Crewe-Preston stopper (Crewe; Winsford; Hartford; Acton Bridge; Warrington BQ; Earlestown; Newton-le-Willows; Wigan NW; Euxton; Leyland; Preston). It must be true because here's a shot of 86262 on the rear of the press-launch special, calling at the rebuilt Earlestown station.
