Totem, BR(M) CLIFTON JUNCTION, H/F. Ex L&Y station, named so until 1974 because it stood at the junction of the Manchester to Bolton line and the Manchester to Bury line on opposite sides of the River Irwell Valley, with the Bury line crossing the valley over the Clifton Viaduct (known locally as the 13-arches), which still stands today as a local landmark. The line to Bury closed in 1966. Overall very good, minimal chipping and slight damage to the bottom, certainly a scarce survivor.
