Rush-hour crowds at Manchester Victoria station
It didn't help that the train on the right here, that should have departed to Kirkby several minutes earlier, was being delayed and the doors not even opened, while the next train (to Leeds) was due at the same platform very shortly, thus doubling the number of waiting passengers.
Manchester Victoria Station

Opened in 1844 (the present building dates to 1902), Manchester Victoria is the second busiest station in Manchester. It runs services mainly to destinations north and east of Manchester as well as Liverpool. There is also a Metrolink station on the line to Bury. The station underwent a major refurbishment between 2013-15, see ( Link )
