dbo:abstract
The Borderlands line (Welsh: Llinell y Gororau or Lein y Gororau), also known as the Bidston–Wrexham or Wrexham–Bidston line, is a railway line between Bidston on the Wirral Peninsula in England and Wrexham Central in the north-east of Wales. Passenger train services are part of the Wales & Borders franchise and are operated by Transport for Wales Rail. The line connects to the Merseyrail network at Bidston, the North Wales Coast Line at Shotton and the Shrewsbury–Chester line at Wrexham General. Parts of the line in Wales are used by freight trains, serving Deeside Industrial Park and the Hanson Cement works to the south of Buckley. The line is part of Transport for Wales' North Wales Metro improvement programme and is also referred to in England as the Mid Wirral line as part of the line runs in the middle of the Wirral peninsula. The line is currently operated with Class 150 DMUs. Bi-modal battery electric diesel Class 230s for Transport for Wales were set to enter service in May 2022 in conjunction with a possible increase in service frequency. On 24 May 2022, Class 197s were tested on the line, despite being initially excluded. On 1 July 2022, TfW announced that the Class 197s would be used on the line. The long-delayed 230s had its staff training suspended following a battery-related incident in April 2022, TfW stated they target a late 2022 introduction as they aimed to restart the 230s' staff training programme in August 2022. There have been various proposed strategies for the line to be fully or partially integrated with the electrified Merseyrail network to increase services towards Liverpool. Past proposals for electrification on the line were deemed unfeasible due to costs. However, the introduction of new battery capable trains on the line from 2022, the Class 230 or potentially Merseyrail's Class 777 are hoped to extend services from Bidston towards Liverpool.
