To those of us of a certain age what we now call Burnley Central Station will always be Bank Top. In this part of town there are a number of place names with the word Bank in the title - Bank House, Bank Hall, as well as Bank Top. As you will know, there is also a street name, Bank Parade. All of the "Banks" refer to a landscape feature of the immediate area - the slope or embankment which can be identified on the northern bank of the Brun as it flows from below Heasandford, through Bank Hall park (where the great coal mine was situated), through Thompson's Park to St Peter's and on to the river's confluence with the Calder.
A desperate university student on her way to an exam risked her own life and sparked chaos on a railway line when her train set off without her and she sprinted a mile down the track to catch it
The 34-year old Lancashire woman decided to get off and buy a ticket at a railway station kiosk after her bank card was declined by a conductor's chip and pin machine.
But as she was about to get back on the train it pulled out of Burnley Central in Lancashire - and she realised she had left her dissertation and other revision papers on board.
Risky business: The unnamed woman ran for a mile along these tracks after her train left Burnley Central station without her
As the train set off, the unnamed woman panicked, leapt off the platform and ran onto the line after the train in the hope of catching up with it at the next stop Burnley Barracks.
But her amazing chase along the track and across the 15-arch 1848 Burnley viaduct caused chaos on the line forcing another train coming the other way to grind a halt.
Ralway staff eventually stopped her and called police. She was later quizzed on suspicion of trespassing on a railway line and issued with a £50 fixed penalty notice.

Building Formerly the Cooperative Bank

Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "As further evidence of the shoals and rapids through which farmers' cooperative organizations must ride, even in Denmark, one finds in Copenhagen this great building--one of the largest and most modern of the office buildings in the whole country. It was built by the farmers' cooperative bank just a few years ago. Because of lack of business leadership and two especially poor moves it failed like many of those elsewhere. The building has been in the hands of a receiver."
