Manchester Victoria Travel Guides:
TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience

"While you’re in the station, take a moment to find the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway tile map – a beautifully restored piece of Victorian railway history showing the network as it was in the early 1900s. Step outside onto Corporation Street and look for the concrete wall relief sculpture – a striking piece of public art away from the hustle and bustle of the station. Just 100 yards from the station entrance, The Printworks is one of Manchester's great entertainment complexes with a 23-screen Vue cinema, bars and eateries, including a Wagamama, and a bowling alley, all housed in a former newspaper printing house with a spectacular new digital ceiling."
