While still unqualified, I worked on the Loop Line project for a

I used Central LL regularly in the 60s (work in Liverpool, girlfriend in
Bromborough), and remember it as a rather dirty depressing place. Trains
came up from the tunnel under the Mersey, dropped off their passengers,
ran forward into the reversing sidings (2, IIRC, one often containing a
spare unit), and then emerged into the dim light of the Birkenhead-bound
platform.
