TransPennine weekend works - (Stalybridge - Huddersfield): Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 October
Due to major engineering works taking place at Heaton Lodge from Saturday 10 September to Sunday 11 October 2026, there will be no train services in operation between Stalybridge and Huddersfield.
Whilst works are on-going, journeys between Greater Manchester, Yorkshire and the North East will be affected.
TransPennine Express services will be diverted via the Calder Valley route or terminate short of their normal destinations, while some Northern services will also be amended.
Passengers travelling from Manchester towards Leeds, Huddersfield, York, Hull, Newcastle and the North East will need to use a combination of diverted services and rail replacement buses.
If you're making journeys via this route, please plan ahead and allow plenty of time for your travel. Visit the TransPennine Express website for more information.
