In this suggestion i am suggesting Liverpool Lime Street - Manchester Victoria via Lea Green, This route would be roughly 30 miles and would include the 319 Northern Trains, 331 Northern Trains and 802 Transpenine Express. Stops along the way, Liverpool Lime Street, Edge Hill, Wavertree Technology Park, Broad Green, Roby, Huyton, Whiston, Rainhill, Lea Green, St Helens Junction, Earlestown, Newton-le-Willows, Patricroft, Eccles, Salford Central and Manchester Victoria.
