The rail industry is calling on people to only make essential train journeys this bank holiday weekend.

A beloved wooden bench has been restored to Plumley station in the shape of a replica as a nod to the Mid-Cheshire Line’s heritage.  

Northern is preparing to mark three years since the Manchester Arena bombing and  help others do the same during the current coronavirus-related restrictions. 

Northern is to introduce amended timetables from Monday (18 May) to continue to help key workers and those making essential journeys get where they need to be.

A new mural has added a splash of colour to the footbridge at St Helens Central station, bringing a smile to passengers making their way through the Merseyside town.
