It’s high time this service was put back to hourly and extended (north) to Huddersfield and (south) to Hazel Grove, or even Buxton. Just how good would that be?
If this train has to run then any passengers would be a bonus. So why is it not a free ride? Or a nominal £1 for any one to use. Think of a school trip to educate and entertainer and explain rail safety and operation.
I like the way they handle the crowds at Denton and Reddish. :-)
Standing room only.
Denton is my local station so great to see in this footage
Brian Redhead made a film about this line in the 1981 travelling from Stockport to Stalybridge for Home Ground on the BBC.
Great film once again. I like the remnants of the Woodhead electrification still left.
That Stockport Viaduct is very impressive
My journey to school 1965-1970
Nice one bro 👏👏
Great stuff. Thanks.

Any idea what Network Rail are doing to that (atochem?) siding just beyond Stalybridge?
Perfectly timed once a week not to connect with 2 departing services
Wish I had a £pound for every time I've ridden that train.
Put it on the metrolink
Not much piling work done between stalybridge and guide bridge just see the orange lids before guide bridge station.
Imagine waiting a week then missing it after taking a leak.
"AC Crewe" ?
The control room for the ac current in the overhead wire is at Crewe
What is meant by "parliamentary train"?
it’s run to avoid formal closer procedures of the stations Denton & Reddish South. The train runs infrequently once a week
@@petersimons5675 it runs on a Friday I do believe.
