Ewood Bridge and Edenfield
A rather grainy shot of closed Ewood Bridge station on 14th February 1981 as the 'Rossendale Farewell' special heads back from Rawtenstall to Bury. The train is just negotiating the slewed single track through the still extant platform and the old goods shed can be seen to the right. This train marked final closure of the line to coal trains. Since reopening by the ELR the track has been straightened and the platforms removed, although nearly forty years on the goods shed (just) survives 58877.
