Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox station Hyde North is a railway station serving the north of Hyde, Greater Manchester, England. It is managed by Northern Trains, who also operate all services that stop here.

History

It was opened originally as Hyde Junction in February 1863.[1] The station was sited at the junction between the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway's extension to New Mills, operated jointly with the Midland Railway as the Sheffield and Midland Railway Companies' Committee, and the MS&L main line through Penistone to Sheffield. For a while, it saw the Midland's expresses from London; however, in 1875, a new and more direct route was built through Bredbury. On 17 September 1951, the station was renamed Hyde North.[1]

Hyde North Junction accident

The junction just outside the station was the scene of a crash on 22 August 1990. At at around 09:50, two trains collided across the single lead junction where the two routes diverged; these were the 09:33 from Шаблон:Rws to Manchester Piccadilly and the 09:36 from Manchester Piccadilly to Sheffield. There were 28 minor injuries amonst the 42 passengers.

The official report found that the driver of the Rose Hill train had inadvertently passed a signal set at danger and passed onto the short section of single track between the platform end and the junction points where the collision took place. It also concluded that the driver had not received adequate training.[2]

Services

Hyde North only has platforms on the non-electrified tracks of the Hope Valley line. It is generally served by half-hourly services in each direction on Mondays to Saturdays, operated by diesel multiple units between Piccadilly and Rose Hill Marple.[3]

The electrified tracks behind the station carry electric multiple units on the Glossop line between Manchester Piccadilly, Glossop and Hadfield. Despite the station's former name, Hyde Junction, which suggested that passengers had a choice of routes, there never were platforms on the Glossop line here; trains call at nearby Шаблон:Rws instead.

In July 2020, Northern informed local residents that services between Manchester Piccadilly and Rose Hill Marple would not operate between early September and mid-December 2020;[4] this was due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on their workforce. Although disruption occurred, the service was restored soon afterwards.
