The station offices were of brick construction, with timetables, notice boards etc, in the winter months a cosy coal fire in the waiting rooms, toilets and station masters office. Today, just a look-like bus shelter on the deserted platforms like most branch lines.

Bet the passengers would love the benefit of that canopy on a wet day like today.

Somehow an "Abacus" modular type bus shelter just isnt the same.
