Liverpool City Region Mayor Steve Rotheram hopes to increase Merseyrail's capacity for Everton fans.

Transport bosses said the event went "smoothly" but some fans reported issues ahead of the event.

Tim Peake said investing in the space economy would "inspire future generations".

Steve Rotheram says Tim Peake was impressed by the bio-engineering expertise in the North West.
