Re: Accrington Train Station
Churchman Phil:
Track plans of Accrington station..... At the risk of getting jumped on for being a true geek, the book you need is : Signalboxes on Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway lines (NE Lancashire) by Chris Littleworth, published by the Signalling Record Society 2002, ISBN 1 873228 21 X. There's a challenge for Accrington Library! As regards 'the other train' in the original photo - it looks like empty stock in platform 1 - the Manchester bay. There was also a small goods yard on that side of the station Rgds 45378 |

Re: Accrington Train Station
Actually it turns out it's not such a big challenge after all - there's a copy in the Local studies part of the reference library!
