The disused platforms at Broadfield, closed in 1970, are seen from the rear of a Met Cam DMU heading for Heywood on the East Lancashire Railway. See image 20996 for a view of Broadfield in 1968. The former goods yard is now occupied by housing that reaches right up to the old platforms, hence the trimmed hedge on the right hand side of the line.
