The chimney in the distance (for which the coordinates are given as the photo subject) is that of Clarence Mill - see Image The mill would still have been in operation when these nearly 50-year-old Mark 1 carriages were made. The photo was taken out of the window of a charter train that had made an unscheduled stop at Stalybridge station to let off a passenger who had joined mistakenly at Huddersfield, believing it to be the scheduled service to Manchester Airport.
