Very lovely train station! Large variety of trains from a trainspotter point of view and there is frequent services to a variety of stations. A large variety of operators call here including Transpennine express, Transport for wales, Avanti west coast, Northern, East Midlands Railway and Cross Country. There are no ticket barriers present but revenue protection are on hand.
There is also a variety of places to grab a bite to eat and shops within the station.
The station also functions as a primary location for the British Transport Police so a variety of cars and vans can be seen here - perfect for Emergancy Vehicle Enthusiasts.
There are also frequent tram links to a variety of places around Manchester which is amazing!

The experience was amazing! A huge thanks to Keith (Gallardo instructor) and Kev (McLaren instructor) who made the experience memorable by encouraging me to go fast and help my confidence and talking and guiding me throughout. They were amazing alongside all of the other instructors and I will be coming back again next year! With a large variety of cars to drive it ensures that there is a supercar there for everyone! There is also a food truck onsite to allow you to grab some food on the go. Other experiences are offered such as the atomic atom passenger experience, BMW drift experience (which looked so fun!) and the young driver/passenger experiences on top of the normal driver experiences. I also would personally state that 3 laps per car is worth it alongside upgrading to some of the premium cars.
For my experience I decided to select the Aston Martin, Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari California, Fast and Furious GTR and the McLaren (all pictured below from the photos I purchased from the day). All of the cars were really great to drive but the Lamborghini, GTR and McLaren were what I believed to be the best drives (especially when Kev turned on sports mode as I became more confident with the McLaren). While I was there they also had an Aventador which I hope to try in the future as it is a very noisey car.
I also like that they take professional photos from your experience as well as videos from inside of the car. These are available to view and purchase after the experience.
Overall, the experience is a MUST do for supercar lovers like myself and people who would like the opportunity to drive one of these amazing supercars. Definitely looking forward to coming back next year which will be better as I now know the track!
