There was a time when Rose Grove was an important station with buildings such as booking office, waiting rooms, toilets, etc. on the platform. There was even an engine shed nearby. Now there is a vast expanse of platform with a totally inadequate bus shelter. Here a fast diesel train destined for Leeds passes the station disdainfully.
