Buxton

The imposing fan window at Buxton station on 17th March 2018. The line of the road stands on the site of the forecourt between the LNW and Midland stations. A matching window adorned the Midland side but was unfortunately demolished upon the station’s closure. Eagle-eyed observers will have spotted Stanier Class 5 45407 (running as 45157) on the viaduct in the middle distance. Top and tail with 45690 it had just returned from a very rare foray up the Hindlow Branch with RTC’s High Peak Explorer.
