Just a point that I had noticed in 2015 and seen to have forgotten since then....

Wincobank and Meadowhall....The currently open station of Meadowhall was built on the site of this closed station (similar to what occurred when the new station of Liverpool South Parkway was built on the site of the closed station of Allerton).
