The station only sees one passenger train a week from Stockport to Stalybridge. Image This is not a goods train passing Denton station but a track cleaning train. They are common across the rail network in the late summer and autumn months. They keep the tracks clear of fallen leaves during the leaf-prone months. My thanks to Thomas Nugent who photographed one in Wemyss Bay Image for spotting it.
