A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
That is the end of options for the day, so we take the six minutes uphill walk (it takes my old legs that long in real life) to the small bus station and we next board one of the very early morning services on a route that only calls here at these times, the 0400 High Peak service 199 to Stockport Interchange that arrives there at 0425 on Sunday.

That train goes from Manchester Piccadilly not Victoria.
That's the standard WTT too, not a VAR or STP working. There are a couple of peak services in the week and Sunday services that start at Victoria.
