Don Jary, who is Northern Rail’s new Client and Stakeholder Manager (West), replacing the recently-retired Mark Barker, has agreed to attend a SHRUG (Stalybridge to Huddersfield Rail Users’ Group) meeting on 23rd July.
The meeting will take place at the Uppermill Civic Hall starting at 7.15 p.m and Don will have to leave by 8.35 p.m. to catch the 8.51 p.m. train.
Don is responsible for Northern Rail’s train services in Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Derbyshire including (amongst other things) the Huddersfield to Manchester Victoria train service, and the stations on the west side of the tunnel. Marsden and Slaithwaite stations are managed by Drew Haley, who is the Client and Stakeholder Manager (West & North Yorkshire).
As time will be limited, we will be collating a list for him to look at various points and will submit it to him a week before to enable him to maximise his presentation. Any points whatsoever which you want to be discussed please let us know by 16th July, by e-mail to the address on the contact page on the SMART website.
