Woolfold
L&YR 2-4-2T 50651 climbs away from Woolfold station with its last day push pull train from Bury Bolton St, next stop Sunnywood Halt, on its way to Holcombe Brook. This print had no location details but there was only one passing loop on the branch, the points for which can just be made out behind the rear coach. The line in the foreground is the shunting neck for the goods yard. The raised signal indicates the signal box was switched out on this occasion. Print credited to N R Knight. See image 21839 for a modern day 'Then and Now' comparison picture of the location.
