Rawtenstall Station

The Rawtenstall terminus of The East Lancs Railway is a station preserved as in "The Golden Age Of Steam". Even the ticket office, waiting room and buffet (cafe) are pretty authentic (=basic, but homely).
The buffet is great - they serve home made foods (remember this is a volunteer organisation) and this food consisted of tiny Jam or Cheese sandwiches, made with Blackpool Milk Roll bread. This is really our favourite, reminding us of childhood teas, and they were only 20p each. Wonderful.
Seating is limited so we took them into the waiting room to eat them, where there were a load of kids waiting for Thomas The Tank Engine to arrive. We felt about as old as old as them as we ate our little sandwiches.

Favorite Dish: Jam Sandwich on Blackpool Milk Roll and a cup of tea.
