I'm certinately looking forward to seeing this on the Oldham section, hopefully will shift some passengers away from all those buses

and free up space, and be more efficient and passenger friendly than the trains were, also being able to link Oldham with Manchester Picc is rather good for interchange.
Having said that all these reports saying Vic and Picc will soon be linked anway by heavy rail. Nonetheless, its all good stuff (well, when it's complete).
