There's a problem with the table autosort in that it will sort the numerical values according the first digit, not the total (so we'll have a "sorted" list of 1,000,000, 234, 3,456, 4, 5,600,797, 65, etc etc). Not sure how that's addressed.
Where are these figures sourced from? We need to make this clearer, even if it's in the lead. -- Jza84 · ( talk) 20:46, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
With regards to the usage figures sorting, it works if you press the sort button 4 times, not sure why? └ and-rew┘┌ talk┐ 12:46, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
Whilst we have the 2005/06 data in the table, the figures listed on the individual station pages are the older 2004/05 ones. Any particular reason for this, or is it just a case of getting round to updating the individual pages? paypwip ( talk) 09:27, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Wasn't there a plan to take this article to WP:FL status? -- Jza84 | Talk 16:49, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
No entry for this? Or is it because its a historical railway? Parrot of Doom ( talk) 22:43, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
I just noticed the new figures have been added. I think a note needs to be added somewhere to explain why some stations have plummeted and some have shot up. Incase anybody doesn't know it is due to the new computer system used which is supposed to stop the problems caused by station grouping e.g. Piccadilly and Victoria. Previously all trains to "Manchester Stns" would be added to Piccadilly and now they are estimated between the others. I'm not sure how a note could be worded as it is a little confusing. ┌ Joshii┐└ chat┘ 01:38, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
The stats are for 2009/2008 - is there an easy way to update the list for 2013/2014 stats without copying hundreds of numbers individually from the SRA website? Smurrayinchester 09:11, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Regarding the text creating a direct link between Piccadilly and Victoria for the first time
added by
ChiZeroOne (

contribs), a link did exist in the past - to the east of the city. Just to the east of Miles Platting station, on the line to Ashton-under-Lyne, there was a former Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway branch of just under two miles length to Ardwick where a junction faced Piccadilly (then known as London Road), about half a mile out from that terminus. This junction was just to the north-west of the present junction at Ardwick for the Glossop line. The branch from Miles Platting to Ardwick was opened for goods in 1848 and to passengers in 1852, but had closed by 1970. It was definitely used by passenger trains between London Road and Victoria from 1902. See the RCH Junction Diagram no. 47 of 1910. --
