5. Manchester Oxford Road ?  That timber ceiling is not that common on stations.

Correct. Another great bit of Grade II listed architecture from the (original) London Midland Region:



The later added bit (before listing) to the right does rather spoil the clean lines of the frontage though.

4: Manchester Piccadilly?

Correct.

Complete with old-style Network Rail logo... I didn't notice until recently, but there are actually two different versions in use! If you take a look at the website you'll see that in the current version all of the pieces of the red triangular motif join at a point in the top right-hand corner, and the company name is now rendered as "NetworkRail" with no space.

I'll put my anorak away now.
