Approaching Manchester Exchange Station
Travelling on a service using the through lines at Manchester Exchange. The station was opened by the London & North Western Railway in June 1884. It was built as a result of congestion at Manchester Victoria station which was owned by the rival Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway where L&NWR trains were often delayed. In the late 1960's British Railways decided that rationalisation was required. Exchange station's passenger services were transferred to Victoria station in May 1969 and the station closed although trains still ran through platforms 3-5. The trainshed, still standing in 1976, was finally demolished in the early 1980's. The tracks through the Exchange were lifted when Victoria station was rebuilt in 1993. The station area is now a car park.
