I remember they tweeted an image of MCO from there office when a train broke down showing the first train going through the station.
I know the web tickets support team are at Intercity House in Plymouth with FGW
I presume its in the head office, Bridgewater house on Whitworth Street/Oxford Street in Manchester. As that's where there twitter team are based, I've rang up many times, recently actually and usually get someone with a Manchester accent

Well it varies. I do Wythenshawe Town Centre to St Peters Square every morning and that take about 35 minutes. Dependant on the wait at Cornbrook which is never more than 4 minutes. So the overall time is about 40-45 minutes from MIA to the City Centre.
People said the line wouldn't be that...
It did on Twitter.. I felt sorry for the social media staff.
The last tram from Market Street on a normal Saturday to Rochdale is 00:31,Bury 00:57,East Didsbury 00:46
That whole timetable was adjusted by +1 hour
The last train to Rochdale from Victoria on a normal Saturday is 23:21.
The problem was the crowds. The tram driver chose to stop on the case that it would have been to dangerous from it to move any further as all the tracks were clogged with people, 15,000 people turned up to the event.
Theoretically they shouldn't have even moved the new year celebrations to...
Wythenshawe.. has a population of about 75,000 possibly more and the Mid-Chesire line runs right through the centre
With Manchester Airport and Gatley being over 3 miles away as the closest stations
If I'm not mistaken.. Manchester Metrolink is. Mainly because 3 of the lines are converted railway lines and have connections to NR track and obviously the other 4 lines are the same :)
I posted this on SSC but i thought i'd give you guys an update of the southern part of the Airport line
Airport Line Photo Update
Staring at Robinswood places are starting to look picturesque
