This page has a picture captioned as Rebekah Wade (as she then was) on work experience as a crossing keeper at Stewartby in 1986.

I can't really believe this is true because (according to Wikipedia at least) she was brought up in Warrington and decided to be a journalist at age 14. Also the face on the picture doesn't look quite right somehow.

Can anyone shed any light?

As the page says, she clearly couldn't 'hack' being a mere BR employee. ;)

Not a brilliant photoshop though.

Looks badly photoshopped. For a start, that's her appearance now...I doubt she's changed so little.
