But there will be an hourly Hazel Grove to Preston service from December. So the number of trains going through Deansgate will remain the same.

However, maybe the reason for it being a Hazel Grove to Preston service over a Buxton to Preston service is that Northern are scared of a train missing it's path in between Stockport and Piccadilly.

The main losers from the extra London services to Manchester will be the stations between Chelford and Sandbach, which will lose two peak trains in and out of Manchester and stations between Mouldsworth and Navigation Rd which will see peak trains starting and terminating at Stockport, rather than Manchester.
