Dianne said: "Just been told by train driver a tree has gone down on the train lines somewhere near Stockport and so the power has had to be switched off @MENnewsdesk ".
In an updated tweet, she said: "Update on trains: Network Rail have to get to the station, assess the damage and then advise the train companies how long it will take to fix - it’s apparently not a quick and easy fix. No ETA but all on board here at Cheadle are being urged to consider road transport now."
In a tweet Manchester Piccadilly said: "A tree is blocking the line between Manchester and Stockport - ALL train services are currently subject to delay, alteration and cancellation.
"Please check back for further information."
