No wires were up where it spurs off to Staly from Guide Bridge. This was 2 weeks ago so someone correct me if its changed since then.

Had a visit to Stalybridge yesterday to observe the changes sin the 26 day closure. Lotts of metal has gone up but plenty more to errect

No, I actually saw 2 tpe trains, couldn't believe my eyes.

Thanks. The bases were only evident between the platforms, so I assume a very wide span will be used to the West with different piles / bases. Forgot to mention that they've cut a channel from the Eastern end of platform 4 to the buffers at platform 5. Its all covered with plastic covers for...

Had a quick visit to Stalybridge Station yesterday and noticed a lot of short metal posts with red and white tape on, also there are 4 rusty circular bases between platforms 3 and 4. Any ideas for what purpose?

Yes I was stood on the footbridge.

Some photos from Little Moss Road,Droylsden showing masts,East and West of that bridge

Automated forecasts dont usually reflect the severity of the actual weather. Expect more changes as we near the events.

Storm track not nailed yet with hints of Southerly corrections that would see the strongest winds hitting the Midlands and Southcoast. This also could bring blizzard conditions and significant falls of snow into Northern England and as far South as the Peak District / Derbyshire dales.

Having read the publication about the 'New' line from Warrington to Marsden, it gets very confusing. If you look at this, The dark blue is the new line but it must also be the old line as it isn't showing an alternative to the Stalybridge route. It also seems to suggest that the whole route will...

Not unusual. I was at Stalybridge a couple of days ago and RTT said 150101 was coupled to a 156. When it entered P5, it was 156423 & 156428 so proof that its not totally accurate.
