Direct train from Manchester Airport to Rochdale

Petition Details

There is a direct train from Manchester Airport to Leeds. I think is a bit useless that we have to make a stop in Victoria to then take a train (to Leeds) to arrive to Rochdale.

Additional Information

Rochdale is the new Town of Culture for 2025-26 I'm Greater Manchester. Adding this line from the Airport will bring more people and easier.
