GM Rail is a proposed commuter rail network for the conurbation of Greater Manchester, in the United Kingdom. The system would form part of the Bee Network, an integrated transport network incorporating Greater Manchester's Metrolink light rail, bus, and active travel. The Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, has proposed the locally-managed network would seek to improve performance and reliability, improve train station accessibility, and implement a pilot of pay-as-you-go fares — similar to that in operation on the Metrolink system. Initially covering 6 routes,


 * Wigan to Manchester Victoria
 * Stalybridge to Southport
 * Glossop & Hadfield to Manchester Piccadilly
 * Rose Hill Marple to Manchester Piccadilly
 * Buxton to Manchester Piccadilly
 * Alderley Edge to Manchester Piccadilly
