Not very consequential or valuable, but my interest, apart from railways generally, is that my great-grandfather, John Stamper, was Station Master at Broughton Cross (1881 census). I have a photo of Broughton Cross Station taken about 1925, but don't know how to insert it. (My first effort at adding info)
