42537 leaving Hooton Station - 1966
The picture was taken of the locomotive, but is interesting in showing the whole of the former Tragasol works, which produced a variety of vegetable oils. Parts of the building survive in the 21st century, but not the main cross-wing seen here.

Stanier 8F at Hooton, 1966
Looking north from the road bridge at the station. Hooton was a staging point for freight operations, being the junction of the line from Ellesmere Port (Vauxhall Motors and Bowater) and Stanlow refinery with the Birkenhead to Chester line. Trains from the latter points had to reverse here to make their way south.

'Crab' 2-6-0 at Hooton Station, 1961
The front of the locomotive is too grimy for the number to be decipherable.
This view shows the old footbridge and the main station buildings on the eastern platform. The left hand platform is no longer used by passenger services, and the nearer set of rails on which the loco is standing has been lifted with a set of buffer stops ending the track a bit beyond the footbridge https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4848137 .
