Barnoldswick Railway

Post by Nick Catford »

I have recently added some pages about the stations at Barnoldswick and Earby to my Disused Stations web site

http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/b/ba ... ndex.shtml
http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/e/earby/index.shtml

I hope I have done the branch justice and all the facts are correct. I sent the text to Robin Higgins (who appears to be the local expert) for checking and approval. He made a couple of minor correction but other than that said everything was accurate.

I have included Ted Harrison's memories of his time at Barnoldswick in the 1940s which I found on this forum, I hope that is OK.

I live in Kent and I am not from the area so I don't know the line or any of the lines in the area, so I have had to rely on the web for all the information.

Welcome to the site Nick. You have done a good job, the wider the circulation of material like Ted's memories are distributed the better! Straight from the horse's mouth and good prime source material.
