Quote ="duke street 10"My brother did the "ale train" from Leeds to Marsden on Saturday with his workmates. He loved it as you stop off at real ale pubs on route (he works at the Coors brewery at Tadcaster).
Anybody else done this?'"
He would love proper beer, bearing in mind he can't get it where he works!
Batley to Stalybridge is the route.
Not much walking needed, and thus more supping time as you don't need to leave the platforms
, at Dewsbury, Huddersfield (x2) and Stalybridge.
Pubs at Batley, Slaithwaite, Marsden, Greenfield and Mossley only a cock stride away also
