Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Miles Platting junction The 17.37 Manchester Victoria-Leeds train approaches Miles Platting junction and its already aged signalbox. For about a decade, this was the only train using the old Lancashire & Yorkshire line across the Pennines which called at Miles Platting station. In 1977, Manchester's skyline had just two high-rise blocks, both of which are visible in the photograph. On the left, the much-derided Arndale tower from the early 1970s; to the right the CIS tower from a decade earlier. Compare with my photograph from the same spot a decade later!
