Northern Rail customers in Alderley Edge are now looking to the future as new Customer Information Screens (CIS) have been installed at the station.
The £264,000 investment by Northern Rail, a Serco and Abellio joint venture, means that rail customers will benefit from new screens which will offer up-to-the-minute train running information as and when it's needed.
The installation of the screens represents part of a £3million investment by Northern and its partners that will mean that 140 stations across the north of England will be equipped with the new technology.
Natalie Loughborough, Customer Service Director for Northern Rail, comments: "We listen carefully to our customers' feedback and we know they value real-time travel information. The new Customer Information Screens will keep people up-to-date with information about arrival and departure times as well as station calling points along the route.
"The launch of these Customer Information Screens demonstrates our commitment to investing in communication channels at our smaller stations."
Other stations in the area that have benefitted from new CIS screens include Cuddington (as shown in the photo above), Lostock Gralam, Knutsford, Poynton, Holmes Chapel, Northwich, Sandbach, Greenbank, Sankey for Penketh, Delamere and Padgate.
