A photo taken looking towards wigan from the down platform of the signal box & gated level crossing at parbold station on the 25th june 1988.
The level crossing at parbold at that time was still one of the old style hand wound mechanical manual wheel operated gated level crossings,that was controlled from the signal box mechanicanically,& had yet to be modernised to push button hydraulic barriers controlled from the box when i took this photo.
