The Stranger: Stockport and heritage?

[BenW390Fan]

In an earlier episode of Netflix's The Stranger, the episode features a train station chase with a station looking a lot like Stockport with the operators that do run there. In a later episode, there's another chase in what I'm assuming is supposed to be a derelict railway site, but in reality it's a heritage railway. Locos featured from what I could see are 56006 and 37109. 56006 confirmed but not sure on the 37. Anyone know what this railway is?

Not sure about 56006 but I did come across a still shot from the series which seems to show large logo 50015 with an unidentifiable Railblue 37 beyond it. I think the East Lancs Railway (at least to my mind) would be the most likely location if the 37 is also 37109.

Possibly, seeing as it's the closest heritage railway to the filming location - assuming it's in the Stockport / Manchester area

Yes it was filmed at the East Lancs.
