There are actually 6 tracks (don't forget the one in the tunnel) at Lime Street Station throat, which would make it even more difficult to extend. Platform 6/7 could be extended for longer trains. 12/13 coach expresses used depart regularly I think.
There maybe room for one more platform maybe an island platform using the roadway inbetween platforms 7&8 as it isnt really used nowerdays plys i wouldent immagine that they could extend the platforms as platforms 1,6,7,8 & 9 are prety long anyweay and would hold probably 10 coaches maybe 11 at a squeeze.
