"Virgin Trains (West Coast) Class 390/1 Alstom 'Pendolino' No. 390141 'City of Chester' approaches Platform 2 at Warrington Bank Quay Station working the 08:40 Glasgow Central to London Euston service on 29th July 2017, while its Classmate No. 390148 'Flying Scouseman' stands at Platform 3, working the 08:43 London Euston to Edinburgh Service. No. 390148 was previously named 'Virgin Harrier', but to mark the 20th Anniversary of Virgin West Coast, Virgin ran a competition with the Liverpool Echo Newspaper to choose a name for a Pendolino No. 'Flying Scousemen' was chosen as it got 21% of the vote and was unveiled on No. 390148 at Liverpool Lime Street Station on 12th June 2017."
