First of all hello people, now what im after
I am trying to find some plans for dunford bridge station and surrounding buildings around electrification esp the new station, signal boxes and ohle equipment, but im struggling to find them.
I've tried the access to archives site, manchester archives, the nrm, railway archives website,the woodhead site and have emailed sheffield archives to see if they have anything, but so far all ive got is some basic track and signal plans for the new track layout.
I know balfour beatties built the tunnel but am not sure if they did the station so not sure if it's worth emailing them, and at the same time not to sure if network rail would have them as the line was closed before it came into existence.
I have the first and third books by e m johnson in the foxline scene from the past series and these are reasonable helpfull, and ive the second book on order, So next step is to try local library's such as penistone and sheffield, but apart from that I not sure what else to try.
Is there a british rail archive? and if so would anyone know how to get in touch with them?
As always and help appreciated

Re: looking for any plans of the rebuilt dunford bridge station
Page 92 of Woodhead the Electric Railway (EM Johnson, Foxline) has an internal shot of Dunford west with the track diagram pretty clear. Appropriate initials for the books author.
Hi interested in the area served by 52D. also researching colliery wagonways from same area.
