Stalybridge railway station

Stalybridge railway station was an Ashton, Stalybridge and Liverpool Junction Railway (AS&LJR) station in use from 1846 to 1917, it was the terminus of the company's line from Manchester Victoria. The station was built by the Ashton, Stalybridge and Liverpool Junction Railway (AS&LJR) and opened as the terminus of its 8+1⁄4 miles (13.3 km) Stalybridge branch from Manchester Victoria on 5 October 1846. The station was "a simple structure with one platform". The station was located adjacent to the Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne and Manchester Railway (SAMR) Stalybridge station that had opened in 1845, the terminus of that company's line from Guide Bridge. The AS&LJR amalgamated with the Manchester and Leeds Railway (M&LR), and others, to form the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (L&YR)) on 9 July 1847. The two adjacent stations were combined in 1849 when the owning companies, the L&YR and the MS&LR, agreed to provide a double junction between the branch lines and to open a joint passenger station, but with separate booking offices on the site of the MS&LR station, a joint goods depot with separate warehouses taking the place of the L&YR station. In 1849 the London and North Western Railway (L&NWR) opened a line to Huddersfield from this combined station, and the station came to be jointly owned by the MS&LR and L&NWR but also used by the L&YR. The station continued to be used by all three companies, and despite being enlarged in 1858 and getting refreshment rooms in 1859, it remained unsatisfactory and on 1 October 1869 the L&YR re-opened their original station for passenger use. In 1884 a large goods warehouse was built. In the 1890s the station had one terminal platform with a bay on either side of it. The station building was at the eastern end directly facing Rassbottom Street. A goods shed and warehouse were to the north of the passenger station accessed by small turntables, it was able to accommodate most types of smaller goods including live stock, but not furniture vans etc., it was equipped with a ten-ton crane. The station closed to passengers on 2 April 1917 and to freight on 22 February 1965.
