Golborne South: The goods shed at Golborne South, seen here in February 2021, is the only building to survive at the station site. Goods services finished in 1967, six years after the last passengers, but the building must have seen further alternative use as it is still in pretty good condition.

Buchanan Street: On the last day of operation of Glasgow's Buchanan Street station, B1 61407 awaits departure with the 11.35 to Thornton. 5th November 1966.

Euxton Junction: A pair of Class 185s come west from Buckshaw Parkway on the approach to Euxton Jct on 13 March 2015. The service has come from Manchester Airport and is heading to Blackpool North.

Cowlairs Tunnel: D49 4-4-0 no 62704 'Stirlingshire' photographed leaving the tunnel shortly after departure from Queen Street with a Fife bound train on 20 April 1954.

Gunnislake: Having reversed at Bere Alston, 150124 has just arrived from Plymouth at Gunnislake, Cornwall, at the end of the truncated Callington branch, with one of my friends and travelling companion, another David, on the left, on 11th March 2017. This was originally an intermediate station but became a terminus when the section onto Callington was closed in 1966. For another 28 years, trains continued to terminate at the original Gunnislake station, serving just one side of its former island platform. This closed on 30th January 1994 to allow nearby road improvements and was replaced by the present single platform about 100 yards closer to Plymouth. The old station was demolished along with a nearby road bridge.
