This day in history

Immediately after the steam push pull trains had taken over from the electric trains on the branch L&YR 2-4-2T 50829 pulls in to Brandlesholme Road Halt, serving a suburb of Bury, on the 4.16pm from Bury Bolton Street to Holcombe Brook. Electric operation officially finished three days later so this would have been one of the first steam operated services. Brandlesholme Road passed over the bridge and is still the main road from Bury out to Holcombe Brook. W A Camwell Collection (Courtesy Mark Bartlett) [1951] |
