Siphon208 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Hi All, I have seen a few items on the history of this station on this site, particularly by Dave Marks- obviously working at Hooton Box has produced a wealth of information. My cousins live in Oak Road, Hooton, and we spent many days playing with the kids that lived at the station. It was sad to see my local station decline like that, from being exceptionally busy, to almost dormant. Is there any earlier track layouts available, say for 1968- 73? I would love to see those. The bay platform was an interesting feature as well, where the track had a "dog-leg" in it, before it went past the old goods yard, and the site of Vauxhalls "Car pool". I didn't know about the ballast sidings on the Helsby line either! Dean Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
