Request stop

edit

I get trains once every other week or so from Bromley Cross. Where's your source to say that it's a request stop? Anywhere official, or just a rumour? It isn't true.

It isn't a request stop. I believe Entwistle is a request stop, though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.162.157.173 (talk) 09:38, 14 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Location

edit

The station is wrongly positioned on Google Earth, it should be at 53 36 50.85N, 2 24 38.28W, the station on Google Earth is actually Hall i' th' Wood.82.30.60.150 21:21, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Signal box

edit

Bromley Cross Box is not a signalbox anymore, it does not signal trains nor does it act as a fringe between Piccadilly and Preston. It does not control any points. It is now a Crossing keepers box, purely there to manage the pedestrian gates. It has got signal levers which can put the up and down signals, which protect the crossing, to danger.

Please provide a reference for this, per the policy on verifiability; something from The Railway Magazine or Modern Railways would be good. I am afraid that personal knowledge, however accurate, is inadmissible, per the policy on original research. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:52, 18 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
