Block Plan of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway widening and new station at Hindley dated 1886. I obtained this plan at an auction in Hampshire in the early 1990's. The details are well seen with zoom. I have others, too numerous to post here of Hindley, Ince, & Wigan Wallgate (station buildings and track plans) + plans of the identical station buildings at Appley Bridge, Gathurst + Burscough Bridge, If anyone is genuinely interested in viewing the others contact me.

Hi Chris,
I would be fascinated to see any plans you have of Burscough Bridge and Wigan Wallgate if at all possible? I'd love to find plans/photos of Burscough Junction also if anyone has any??
Regards
Pete
