Cheshire Rover Confusion

[Ibex]

Hi all

Just wondering if anybody could solve some of my confusion about the Cheshire day rover.

There are two routes between Manchester Piccadilly and Romiley (I'm planning to do the Rose Hill Marple branch), one of the routes is via Hyde, the other being via Reddish North.

This map suggests to me that it's not valid on the route via Hyde but is valid on the route via Reddish North... http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/manag...445fab7d9d950/areaMap/Cheshire_Day_Ranger.pdf

However this map suggests to me the complete opposite....

What are the actual restrictions on this particular route?

Any help would be much appreciated :-?
Thanks!

Northern's excellent Rovers and Rangers section says both via Guide Bridge and Bredbury, so you can via Hyde.

is where to find the leaflet.

Ahh thank you for that link.

I guess the maps are just a slight inconsistancy / error then.

It's probably ATOC's latest attempt at "simplification". In other words, confuse people by making things unclear or just ATOC incompetence!
