Bulkington Station: lnwr_bulk2004

View of Bulkington Station's stationmaster Mr Turner posed for the camera on the down platform at the station circa 1900. Typical of the LNWR is the station branding on the bench seat and at the top of the glass on the oil lamp seen abover Mr Turner's head. The photograph was supplied by David Freeman who wrote 'Amongst my old Grandfathers bits and bobs is an old photo of the stationmaster at Bulkington station in sepia circa 1900. My great uncle remembers him as Mr Turner. I see you have an image of a Mr Turner posing for the camera on the site. Well a coincidence, this picture attached is obviously taken to the right of where he stands and he does look older which should date your picture. You can see the sign, gas lamp and window are the same. I just wondered if you would like this image for posterity.'
