Search - Recent Train Times

The table below lists all train services departing Sheffield (d SHF) and arriving in Manchester Piccadilly (a MAN) for the specified time period. Also part of the table is a colour chart showing the percentage of the time each service was on time/delayed and the length of the delays. To see actual times click here.

Explanation

The table above shows multiple arrival statistics. (Please see below for the colour key).

For example, the statistic '% Arrivals RT-5m late' is the percentage of the time that the service arrived no more than 5 minutes late in the time period covered by this search (Mon - Fri between Sat 14 Jun 2025 and Sat 12 Jul 2025).

By this measure the best performing service is the 06:18 departure from Sheffield scheduled to arrive in Manchester Piccadilly at 07:36, which arrived no more than 5 minutes late 100% of the time. In this time period, this service actually arrived on average ½min late at 07:36.

When looking at the average arrival time remember it is just the average. Sometimes the service arrived earlier than this, sometimes later. For example, to see some actual arrival times for each service click here.
