Don't know much about trains but this is taken from a collection of slides I got from a House Clearance There were hundreds of slides of trains and buses I'll be putting them on the site in the future, when I can determine which ones relate to the Wigan Area.
This slide is entitled DESIRO don't know if that means anything ???

And the bridge is relatively new, late 90's maybe.

Unit in its original livery working the (then) one a day Birmingham-Preston service off Wigan at around 17.00-18.00.
Date - sometime around 2007/8. Cannot be training for Man Airport services, these units all in LM livery for several years now.
