Didsbury Cricket Club
Looking across Didsbury CC's Wilmslow Road ground towards Parrs Wood Road and Kingsway. The first XI play in the ECB Cheshire Premier League. The club also run four other teams in the Cheshire County Cricket League and a women's team in the Cheshire Women's Cricket League. The ground is looking a little worn probably due to winter lacrosse use.

East Didsbury Station
Looking south along the platform at East Didsbury Railway Station. 323237, an ex-British Rail class 323 passenger train has just left the station, en-route for Manchester Airport and Crewe.
The British Rail Class 323 electric multiple units (EMUs) were built by Hunslet TPL from 1992-93. Forty-three of these 3-car units were built for inner-suburban services around Birmingham and Manchester. These trains were the last vehicles to be built by the struggling manufacturer Hunslet before it collapsed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_323 ). These trains were also amongst the last to be constructed in the UK before rail privatisation.

DMU 195 130 on a service from Manchester Airport to Windermere whisks its way through East Didsbury
The British Rail Class 195 Civity is a class of diesel multiple-unit passenger train manufactured by CAF, owned by Eversholt Rail Group and currently operated by Northern Trains. The units were originally due to enter service in December 2018 alongside the Class 331 units, however, they were instead first introduced on 1 July 2019 under previous operator Arriva Rail North on the Manchester Airport and Liverpool Lime Street via Warrington, and Manchester Airport to Barrow-in-Furness routes. The introduction of new rolling stock for the Northern franchise was fuelled by the need to phase out the unpopular Pacer trains by 2020. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_195
