FRIENDS OFHEBDEN BRIDGE STATION |
Our local train operator is Northern. Hebden Bridge is on the Caldervale Line, with direct train services to Leeds, York, Manchester Victoria, Chester, Ellesmere Port and Blackpool.
NB. Manchester Piccadilly/Manchester Airport - to avoid having to cross Manchester from Victoria Station an alternative route is to go to Dewsbury and take the Airport train from there. There is a half-hourly daytime service Monday to Friday and hourly Sunday: 43 mins to Piccadilly; 66 mins to the airport. For details see Trans-Pennine Express.
Approximately 400 yards of track comprising the 'Todmorden curve' re-opened in May 2014 making new journeys possible and reduced travel times.
Due to lack of rolling stock, a regular service between Blackburn and Manchester over Copy Pit only started a year later on 18 May 2015.There are no direct trains between Hebden Bridge and Huddersfield. Passengers need to change either at Halifax or at Brighouse.
