Electric Train Services : Manchester and Bury via Prestwich : London Midland Electric Services : British Railways, London Midland Region : timetable leaflet : 5 November 1962 - 16 June 1963 : Bury and Manchester timetable

            The timetable leaflet for the London Midland Electric Services from Manchester Victoria to Bury via Prestwich services. This cover includes the "London Midland" version of the British Railways totem and the less common London Midland Electric Services double star symbol.

The third rail line, running at 1200v DC, had been electrified by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway in 1916; the company were relatively active in investigating electrification in pre-WW1 years. The line, latterly run by BR's Class 504 EMU's, was closed in 1991 for conversion as part of the first phase of Manchester's Metrolink system.

The service is noted as being via Prestwich. There was, until 1966, additional DMU services from Manchester to Bury via Clifton Junction.
