Merseyrail changes shoppers and party-goers should be aware of tonight

Train cancellations and timetable changes are set to have an impact on shoppers heading home from Liverpool and party-goers heading into the city centre tonight.

Merseyrail services on the Kirkby and Ormskirk lines will be hit, with three trains cancelled and several facing amended schedules.

The timetable changes are due to a "shortage of traincrew", the travel organisation explained on social media.
