A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
Ramsgreave & Wilpshire is the first station on the opposite branch of Daisyfield Junction
INFORMATION

In response to a conversation sent to me by another thread contributor, I can confirm that this particular station was NOT built on the same site as the original Wilpshire for Ribchester station, but was built some 400 yards to the south of that original station site.

Newark Northgate is close to one of the last remaining flat crossings on the national network. Another more recent example, although involving a heritage railway, can be found near Porthmadog.

Great Chesterford originally opened as "Chesterford", with the "Great" added in 1875. Similarly, Great Ayton opened as "Ayton", becoming "Great" in 1874

Betws y Coed was the terminus of the Conwy Valley line when it opened in 1868 until the line beyond to Blaenau Ffestiniog was opened in 1879 although the present station opened in 1982 on the site of the former GWR station.
