Rose Grove station, Lancashire
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.

Rose Grove railway station, Lancashire
Opened 1848 by the East Lancashire Railway on its Blackburn to Burnley line, view east from Rosegrove Lane bridge. Taken from roughly the same position as Ben Brooksbank's 1951 photograph
Image]- but you'd do well to see anything that appeared in both, other than the platform!

Rose Grove station, Lancashire (2)
Rose Grove station adjoins the 1970s-built M65 motorway which is just at the right-hand end of the road bridge here. In Germany, Holland or France, it would have been second-nature to provide a 'park and ride', or at least a 'kiss 'n' ride' here, but this kind of thinking did not enter the heads of the faceless bean-counters who were in charge of transport planning at the time.
Here a local train for Blackpool picks up a handful of passengers.
