Since my last visit in 1989 (23 years previously!) http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/823734 the wooden booking office has been treated less than sympathetically, but the airiness of the structure remains. The photo was taken hand-held without flash. Unlike Atherton station, Walkden was not manned on a Saturday afternoon, though the conspicuous ticket machine was available for use.
