The strange looking building alongside the line at Old Trafford is actually the scoreboard, which illustrates how close the cricket ground is to the station. View south towards Altrincham. This line has had three different overhead electrification schemes. 1500v DC to 1971 followed by 25kv AC until converted to the Metrolink tramway at 750v DC. See image 29619 to see how this location has since been altered with new staggered platforms.
