I've simply stopped using this train now, as combined with the poor punctuality of the 0903 from New Mills means I'm losing having to make up too much time at work.

Someone originally from Venezuela spent a few months commuting on the Mid-Cheshire line. He was impressed with how many towns are connected by rail in this country but was unimpressed with the quality of rolling stock and how overcrowded services were.
