Pendleton station - platform view
One of the hourly Blackburn-Manchester trains is calling. This was part of the "new Liverpool line" of the former Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, with four tracks throughout from Manchester Victoria to west of Wigan Wallgate (including the Wigan loop), most stations having two island platforms as here.

Pendleton Broad Street railway station (site), Greater Manchester
Opened in 1888 by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway on its line from Manchester to Wigan, and closed in 1998 as it was superseded by Salford Crescent station. View north west towards Wigan Wallgate - the main building was attached to the next overbridge.

Pendleton station
Pendleton once had two stations, about 100 yards apart on the same main road. Originally Pendleton Broad Street, this was the survivor in the 1980s, with services to Blackburn, Wigan and Manchester. There was a second, identical double-sided platform on the right at one time. Pendleton was so close to Salford Crescent that it closed shortly after that station was opened.

The chippy on Broughton Road, Pendleton
It's good to see this still trading. I remember buying a portion of chips here for 30p, and you could get double chips for 40p.
