Prince heading for Manchester
Date published: 17 August 2010
The Prince of Wales is to embark on a tour of the UK next month, including Manchester, to champion examples of sustainable living.
Travelling on the Royal Train, which runs on biofuel, Charles will visit Edinburgh, Carmarthen, Bristol, Newcastle, Todmorden, Manchester, Nottingham, Birmingham and London.
The five–day tour will visit projects such as a community–run city farm in Newcastle and a grow–your–own scheme in Yorkshire. The Duchess of Cornwall will join the tour for the Bristol and London legs.
The tour is part of the Prince’s Start initiative, a scheme to celebrate sustainable living. It begins in Glasgow on September 6.

Well the Royal train won't be comming to Oldham now that we replaced a perfectly good railway for an unreliable cramped metrolink. Nor will any other business which relies on rail to deliver goods.
