Evening all!

Quick query if I may: does anyone have access to a LM region timetable from the early 1970's (post transfer of Sheffield to Manchester fast services from Woodhead to the Hope Valley)? The difference in journey time between the two routes cropped up in conversation earlier today, and whilst I'm aware that the Woodhead was turning in sub-60 minute journey times from London Road to Victoria during the 60's, I am unaware of what sort of timings the replacement services via the Midland route were taking.

Many thanks!

The 1973-74 timetable shows non-stop trains being booked to take 60 minutes
