M,Y LOCAL STATION PORTADOWN FROM 1972.

ANOTHER PIC BELOW FROM AROUND THE EARLY 1900'S

This is classy in the extreme Daz mate - it sure looks a place I could spend/windle an hour or 2 away dreaming! Thankfully in the North of England where I am , I think we are blessed many Stations remain un-changed! I love Stations with an Olde' World Greasy spoon and tiny Newsagents on certain platforms. Though these are a dying breed 1 or 2 thankfully remain as memory to such childhood-ness for me!

Re: Railway Stations

I remember Casey Jones Burgers were common at the London stations, & another snack food outlet called something like Travellers Fare at many other ones.

Ah yes, I remember those - there was one in Liverpool Street station in the 80s

Re: Railway Stations

A noteworthy point.

The railway network in Northern Ireland is operated by Northern Ireland Railways. It has never been part of British Rail and the double arrow symbol found on stations on the mainland isn't used. Northern Ireland Railways is still nationalised.
