Burnley Manchester Road station reopened, unstaffed, in September 1986, and a DMU is seen here approaching up platform a month later, on 30 October. The old station building is seen on the right, fenced off from the platform as it no longer has a railway function. Small waiting shelters are provided on each of the partially-staggered platforms. Typical 1980s-style lighting on tall posts is installed and signage is of the BR ‘Corporate Identity’ type. It will be seen that the down platform, being in a cutting, is approached by a lengthy ramp.
