Local rail community groups STORM (Support the Oldham Rochdale Manchester lines) and The Friends of Littleborough Stations have told of their disappointment at a decision to reduce train services at both Smithy Bridge and Castleton railway stations.
An email to stakeholders – seen by Rochdale Online – says that from May, Northern will be changing its timetables “as part of an ongoing process to deliver the best possible service for customers” with the Blackburn to Kirkby service calling at Mills Hill instead of Smithy Bridge.
