Services
From Monday to Saturday, Greenfield is served by an hourly Northern Rail service from Manchester Victoria station to Huddersfield station, with some additional service in the peaks. There is also an hourly Sunday service each way since the 2008-9 timetable came into effect.
The more frequent TransPennine Express service, from Manchester Piccadilly station and points west to Huddersfield station and points east, passes through Greenfield without stopping. However, ther are plans for these trains to stop at Greenfield and Marsden.
The station is also for the nearby reservoirs of Dovestones Reservoir, Chew Reservoir or basically the whole of Chew Valley in the Peak District National Park.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“I see this evident, that we willingly accord to piety only the services that flatter our passions.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Men will say that in supporting their wives, in furnishing them with houses and food and clothes, they are giving the women as much money as they could ever hope to earn by any other profession. I grant it; but between the independent wage-earner and the one who is given his keep for his services is the difference between the free-born and the chattel.”
—Elizabeth M. Gilmer (1861–1951)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
