The huge L&NWR goods warehouse at Heaton Norris, immediately to the north of Stockport Viaduct, is still in commercial use and displaying its origins. The passenger station here closed in 1959 and has been cleared away. As 156497 leads an East Midlands 156/158 set past the warehouse on 20th January 2022, a huge Emirates A380 above has its wheels down on finals for Manchester Airport.
