August 2017

We are very pleased to have been shortlisted in the 2017 ACoRP Community Rail awards in the category “It’s Your Station” which includes community and environmental work at the station. Judges are currently visiting the station and the level of award will be announced in September.

Northern is planning to install automatic ticket gates at the station in September. As the station is a listed building the plan needs planning permission. The plans can be viewed online at High Peak Borough Council’s website until Thursday 3rd August ref no HPK/2017/0316

There is a Folk Train on Thursday 24th August with BEETROOT JAM.

Guided Walks : see poster at the station for current walks in the area.

Art in the Window: we are delighted to be part of Glossop Arts Project’s celebration of local art during August in Glossop. In the Station Waiting Room Art Gallery the theme is Bellies not Bins with endangered animals created out of food wrappers. Do go and have a look! Take part in the Art Trail around the town too.

We welcome Friends of Romiley Station on a visit on Saturday 19th August.
