There’s quite a lot of homes within easy walking distance of Clifton station, and there’s plan for more. The parliamentary one train a day is basically just to keep the station open. Any less and it would join the ranks of Denton and Reddish South!
So the simple answer with this would be to add a couple of stop signals inside Standegde Tunnel? Other than that; what happened to reopening the single track Standedge Tunnels?
I lost what I was looking at earlier as regards the Huddersfield Line hence this post. Why on earth is it the loops at Diggle (down) and Marsden (up) can’t be regularly used for overtaking? This would surly create a lot more capacity between Stalybridge and Huddersfield. Also, a loop or slow...
There’d be a heck of a lot more capacity if the Ardsley Tunnel - Outwood section was increased to four tracks. There’s plenty of space! A new Ardsley station and a rebuilt Outwood station could both have slow line platforms only.
