Hyde Central is the main railway station serving Hyde, in Greater Manchester, England; other stations in the town include Hyde North, Flowery Field and Newton for Hyde. It is a stop on the Hope Valley line, hosting services between Manchester Piccadilly and Rose Hill Marple.
History
Originally simply named Hyde, it was built by the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway, opening in 1858 as a branch from its main line through Penistone to Sheffield. From 1862, the branch was extended to New Mills to meet the Midland Railway's extension of its line from Millers Dale. For a while, it saw Midlands expresses from London. In 1875, however, a new more direct route was built through Bredbury.
The substantial station buildings were demolished in 1980, with a new booking office at street level commissioned in their place.
In July 2020, Northern informed local residents that services between Manchester and Rose Hill Marple would not operate between early September and mid-December 2020;[1] this was due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on their workforce. Although disruption occurred, the service was restored soon afterwards.
Service
Hyde Central is served by hourly trains in each direction on Mondays to Saturdays, with some additional services during the day between Manchester Piccadilly and Rose Hill Marple, via Guide Bridge. There is no Sunday service.[2]
All trains are diesel multiple units, normally Class 150s or Class 195s, operated by Northern Trains.
