OBSERVATION


From this station, the current line passes through the open station of Salford Crescent, the closed staion of Oldfield Road, then the open station of Salford Central,

That would leave the option of calling at the closed station of Manchester Exchange or the open station of Manchester Victoria, before ascending the steep Collyhurst Incline to the closed station of Miles Platting.

Notification

I have an early morning appointment at the Cardiology Department at Wythenshawe Hospital. seemingly unaffected by any strike action of the Resident Doctors, which I am told will last until the early hours of Tuesday afternoon, so I will not be online for the early part of the day.
