[David Goddard]

Birmingham Snow Hill is also a light rail interchange

Sorry folks - read Oxford Road, thought Victoria- busy day- never mind - it happens!

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Birmingham Snow Hill is also a light rail interchange

I know that I have not travelled through Manchester Oxford Road station in recent times, but where has the light rail system serving it suddenly come from....hock:

Are you confusing matters with both Manchester Victoria station and Manchester Picadilly station, who both have connections with the Manchester Metrolink system.

Indeed Manchester Oxford Road is NOT a light-rail interchange. So, going back to there, Burnley Manchester Road is another railway station where there is another town in it's name to where it actually is (i.e. Manchester OXFORD Road [Oxford is in the south] and Burnley MANCHESTER Road [Manchester is not in Lancashire]).

Also on my posting of Basingstoke, I intended to say Basingstoke WAS OPENED in 1839. I missed this bit out!

Pontefract Monkhill was also opened by the L & Y (or constituent company)
