If Totley or Cowburn tunnels or one of the landslides in Edale was to close the line between Sheffield and Stockport for a lengthy period, are their any contingency plans?

None of the road connections can take the traffic
My last bustitute from Manchester involved a lengthy journey from Stockport via Woodhead, M1 and the A57 westbound into Sheffield at 2and a half hours!
Buses to Buxton? Buses to Glossop?
Connections at Huddersfield? Stoke/Derby? Leeds?
Make Wynnats pass bus only?
Can somebody please fix the lack of an 'n' in "contingency".
