Manchester - Leeds via Stalybridge and Huddersfield

Services were from Manchester Exchange and Victoria. Connections with Stockport were provided at Stalybridge.

I can find little details of the services on this route - most of the images I found ran via Bradford / Halifax - some of these are show below.
