Taken on 30/09/85, the first full day of electric services south of Rock Ferry to Hooton the one time Chester to Rock Ferry DMU service was thus cut back to Hooton. A Chester allocated 2-car 'Met-Cam' set is seen soon after arrival with the 12.47 from Chester. From this date until MerseyRail electrification to Chester the DMU shuttle used the Helsby line platform to turn back in while the EMU's used the former GWR/LMSR joint line mainline platforms. Even by this date the platform to the right was out of use being part of the run round for freights arriving from the Chester line destined for Ellesmere Port and vice versa.
