Services
There is generally an hourly service daily between Buxton and Manchester Piccadilly, taking about one hour. The service frquency is enhanced to about half-hourly in the morning and evening peaks. A limited number of trains work through beyond Manchester.
Platform 2 is the generally used platform, and platform 1 can only be accessed by shunting, and is therefore only available for departing passenger services. It is usually used in early mornings by the first trains of the day which stable in the platform overnight, and by certain evening operations.

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)
“It seems I impregnated Marge
So I do rather feel, by and large,
Some cash should be tendered
For services rendered,
But I can’t quite decide what to charge.”
—Anonymous.
“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)
