Weekend engineering works & bus replacement throughout January 2025.
On weekends between Saturday 4 January – Sunday 9 February, engineering work will take place between Mossley and Deighton.
As a result, no trains will be able to call at Huddersfield.
A bus replacement service Huddersfield – Slaithwaite – Marsden – Greenfield – Mossley – Stalybridge will be running every 30 minutes in both directions. Estimated total journey time: 65 minutes. Timetable link is here https://timetables.tpexpress.co.uk/#/timetables/3278/Table%202
In their publicity the TRU project are illustrating with some clever pictures of two men in orange overalls carrying a very large pencil, a toy digger, a man in orange next to a giant traffic cone, and a giant tape measure.

We suggested that the giant tape measure didn’t do them any favours, as it resembled a snail to remind people of how slowly this project has progressed in the 13 years since it was announced.
