Rose Grove, on the outskirts of Burnley, is probably best remembered in the annals of railway history for its famous steam shed (10F) that was one of the last ones to retain an active allocation right up to the end of steam in August 1968. There are no signs of the shed and its associated land with most of it behind where I am taking the picture from now being covered by the M65 motorway that can be seen through the trees behind the train. However, the bridge I am standing on does feature in quite a number of contemporary images. Here, 150106 pauses at the station with the 15.57 Preston to Colne. The last picture I have of this unit could not be at a more different location..... https://www.ontheupfast.com/v/photos/21936chg/24717818804/x57602-08-22-penzance-penzance-mpd
