We’re taking it easy today - exploring parts of Cheshire, focusing on the lines around Northwich. A little to the east of the town, at Hartford, the WCML and the Chester - Northwich - Manchester lines cross, and there are a few freight trains due, as well as the regular hourly passenger service. Later in the day, there
could be a train on the Northwich - Middlewich - Sandbach line. Maybe - but it didn’t run… With just a little time to kill at the end of the day, we’ll see if there’s anything interesting on the main line near Minshull Vernon. There isn’t… Nevertheless, it’s been an enjoyable outing.
