Brinnington railway station

It is a relatively new station, opened on 12 December 1977^[1] by British Rail. The line was built originally by the Sheffield and Midland Railway Companies' Committee in 1875 between New Mills Central and Manchester London Road (now Piccadilly station).^{[citation needed]}

The station has a staffed ticket office at street level, which is opened through the day on weekdays (06:30-20:50) and on Saturdays until early afternoon (07:20-14:25). Outside these times, tickets must be bought from the ticket machine or a promise to pay obtained.^{[citation needed]}

Platform-level amenities are limited to waiting shelters, timetable posters, digital CIS displays and bench seating. Automated train announcements are also provided.^{[citation needed]}

Access to the platforms is via footbridge and inclined ramps with steps at regular intervals, which are extremely difficult to use with a wheelchair.

The current off-peak service in trains per hour is:^[2]

• 2 tph to Manchester Piccadilly (1 non-stop, 1 stopping)
• 2 tph to New Mills Central, of which 1 continues to Sheffield

On Sundays, there is an hourly service between Manchester Piccadilly and Sheffield.
