These trains need booking in advance to get the cheapest tickets. I suggest you look at the National Rail website to work out which is the best ticket option for you. Those with Bus and Train passes can travel most of the journey for free if they have the £10 train addition to the GM bus pass. You need to get a ticket from Stockport to New Mills Newtown and return if you are using the GM bus pass for the first part of the journey, Bolton to Stockport.
