Penistone - Railway Station
Image: © David Ward Taken: 31 Jul 2007
This picture is taken near the western end of the main platforms where trains for Manchester once make their way towards the famous Woodhead tunnel. Now walkers following the Trans Pennine Trail come this way and then towards the SE as did the original main line making its way towards Sheffield. Sheffield can still be reached by rail from Penistone as the Pennine Line uses the former branch line to Barnsley which ran off easterly from the main line about a mile south of the station.
