Mid cheshire rail users association want the line open to passengers. To be honset here I think they wouild do a grand job running it themselves as they have some good ideas and are actually interested in the passenger.
Yes a feasability report in the reopening of that line found the benefit:cost ratio is 5:1. Also if GMPTE looked at reopening Cheadle and Baguley stations then it should be feasible to run a Crewe-Altrincham-Manchester service, giving Northwich, Knutsford and Hale a half-hourly Manchester service.
