LMS Route: Trent Valley Line

Bulkington Station: lnwr_bulk1606a

Close up of image 'lnwr_bulk1606' showing Bulkington station with the station staff, including Station master Turner, posing for the camera. The lady to the near right of Stationmaster Turner is probably his wife whilst the other two ladies are wearing aprons indicating that they are possibly domestic staff. The roofless wooden structure on the left is the Gentlemen's toilet and was typical of the conveniences being provided for men during the first 100 years of railways. The ladies would normally be found off a separate ladies only waiting room.
