We regret to confirm that GVRUA will be wound up later this month. This Twitter account will close, however our Facebook page facebook.com/gvrua and Google group will continue on an informal basis for the time being.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years.
This is almost the last possible chance for new volunteers! The committee will meet on Sunday 3rd November to decide whether to recommend to members to close the group. If you'd rather help out to keep the group going, then get in touch asap. New members welcome.

Hi there, sorry to hear that this is showing incorrectly. We will get these announcements looked at. This service was allocated 2 carriages today > realtimetrains.co.uk/service… ^ELT
Today's news is Reddish North should get lifts installed by summer 2026. Meanwhile, Bredbury should get step-free access to the Manchester-bound platform circa 2027.

Good morning from Manchester Piccadilly! It’s a bright & cold morning, but distinctly less windy today.
However, some lines remain closed while they are checked to ensure they are safe for trains and passengers so please use @nationalrailenq before you travel today!

⚠️ Disruption: Manchester - New Mills
Wind has blown a tree onto the tracks at #Reddish. We're on site to safely remove the tree.
Please check @nationalrailenq for travel updates during #StormÉowyn

Today we set out our plan to bring rail into the @BeeNetwork by 2028.
It follows the same approach as GM took with bus re-regulation: three phases with clear deadlines.
It has been developed with the rail industry and we will now seek the agreement of the Government.

Mayor @AndyBurnhamGM has unveiled step-by-step plans to bring rail into the #BeeNetwork by 2028. 🚆🐝

Today's announcement is that the Rose Hill line will become part of the Mayor's Bee Network, but some ambiguity about whether we get station improvements and yellow trains in Dec 2025 or later (like tap in-tap out ticketing) later.

The real question: will we get the pre-Covid half-hourly timetable reinstated, or will there still be hour-long gaps between trains? @AndyBurnhamGM

Inaccurate information- not a good service. Rail replacement and multiple changes is NOT a good service by any stretch of the imagination.
