No, such provision would only be for trains heading West or North.So for trains headings south east from Manchester, they first have to travel 20 miles west?
You hae to make alternate arrangements for trains going east.
My personal preference would be an underground triangle junction immediately south of the Picadilly tunnel portals and a line proceeding to join the eastern leg of HS2 somewhere in the vicinity of Barnsley with the appropriate connections for sheffield trains.
But I imagine that is rather too expensive.
