The train will serve both Marple and New Mills, before continuting to Hyde Central, and stations in Lancashire and West Yorkshire, before continuing over the Calder Valley line, and onwards to Preston. After Carnforth, the train will take the scenic Cumbrian Coast route, with it's imposing scenery and fantastic view of the Irish Sea. The train will arrive in Carlisle at approximately midday, where you will have just under 4 hours to explore the historic city.
