Nowadays Greenfield station is much busier than it was on 29th June 1974 and this glimpse of a bus crossing the railway is seen much more often. The former Oldham PD2 is Greater Manchester Transport 5339. Passengers on board would look down on a station very different from that seen today. Lighting is by gas and there is no footbridge, crossing was by means of a dank subway. The signal was removed when the footbridge was put in place in 1975, largely obscuring the steps on the left which led to another entrance - long disused and blocked off. As can be seen on other shots in this collection, the station buildings were actually in the course of demolition when this shot was taken.
