An interesting shot. I think it must be the wood going to Glossop for the Olive and Partington paper mill. Note the old coach at the back of Dinting shed, also the cable and rodding run down the middle of the triangle from the signal box on the main line platform. The boxing where it went under the station approach is still in situ.

1st photo looks to be a brown wagon with grey end door?

A little O/T but I haven't seen a picture of an EM1 on the Glossop traffic before. The timber was shipped into Manchester from Russia then brought up to Glossop to be unloaded in the yard. Olive and Partington had an area there where they stacked incoming loads. 

 

They had a fleet of four Fowler Tiger Tractors, the last of which was used up to 1960 to haul materials from the station to Turnlee Mill. This one, seen outside Glossop goods shed, is privately restored.
