The first(3028) had a low rounded roof and standard hinged doors, the second(3029) had a clerestory roof and sliding doors. Layout was slight different in each. A third one was supplied just after amalgamation of LYR and LNWR, to diagram D177, very similar to the others, but being steel sided and having an eliptical roof. Two "Pugs" have survived into preservation, both through the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Trust. [5]

Ernest Mangnall managed to sign star defender Herbert Burgess, Alec "Sandy" Turnbull, and Jimmy Bannister after a scandal hit Manchester City and forced them to sell off most of their team. It paid off, and Manchester United won their first League Championship in 1908. They even attempted to sign Australian rugby footballer, Dally Messenger, a man recognised by some to be the top footballer of any code in his day. The next year, FA Cup success would follow as they beat Bristol City in the final 1–0. Sandy Turnbull scored the only goal and Billy Meredith was named man of the match.

Most ex-L&YR routes are now operated by Northern. Manchester Victoria station has been rebuilt in a more modest form and retains the former terminal building. The Caldervale Line, as named by West Yorkshire Metro, is also operated by Northern and uses a large part of the former L&YR. Chruchtown, Hoole and Hesketh Bank were other popular local stations that were forced to close on this line. The first batch of trains were open saloons initially in four-car sets.

Before this could occur, the Railways Act 1921 became law on 19 August 1921, under which the L&YR and LNWR would be forced to amalgamate on 1 January 1923 with each other and with other railways, such as the Midland Railway and the Caledonian Railway. The Act included provisions for two or more railways to amalgamate voluntarily before 1923; and the L&YR and LNWR took the opportunity to implement their March 1921 agreement, and on 1 January 1922 both railways were dissolved and a new company was formed, which was also named the London and North Western Railway; its board of twenty directors included six from the former L&YR. [4] The 1923 Grouping duly occurred one years later, which involved the expanded LNWR forming part of the new London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS). The general manager, secretary and chief mechanical engineer positions of the expanded company were taken by L&YR employees. Ex-L&YR lines formed the core of the LMS's Central Division. Three Observation Coaches were built by the LNWR to diagram M50 for scenic routes such as that between Llandudno and Blaenau Ffestiniog, they ran until displaced by diesel multiple units in 1958.
