The services on this route are comprised of various TransPennine Express services between Manchester and Leeds, but included also are Northern services in and around Huddersfield, Mirfield, and Stalybridge, as well as Grand Central services through Mirfield.

Timetable

The included timetable runs from 05:00 until 22:00. I have included several starting points (all using the same timetable) in the morning so you can decide where to start. I would recommend starting at 05:00 for the largest variety of services including freight.
