Fascinating old adverts for railway equipment

The unit looks to be in the original 1930s LMS livery.

I agree, but what about the location, it looks like the line West of Hunts Cross station but looking back East towards Widnes?

Found the same picture in LMS Coaches. Date circa. 1946, train in service. The destination board says 'Southport' though this is the back of the train (note the tail lamp). It could still be heading towards Southport if the information was changed at both ends to provide passenger information at a terminal platform. I'm afraid I have no idea where though.

Perhaps the pensions ad is not particularly railway related, but look at the lovely artwork on the advert for the railway ticket suppliers 'A&V. Schulze'
