Atherton station - platform view
One of several stations to a similar design on the direct route from Manchester Victoria to Wigan Wallgate, by 1977 Atherton's former Central station was only served by two tracks rather than four. Curiously, it was the centre two which had been retained, though the tracks were originally paired by speed, not direction. This was later changed (see my picture from the late 1980s http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/823680 ), meaning one of the platforms and associated buildings could be demolished, saving maintenance costs.
