Saltburn Railway Station was somewhat grander than the island platform affair we see today. As seen in the previous post on this site.

Part of the station up until the early 1980s was a subway from Milton Street to Dundas Street under the railway lines.

The date stamp on the beam indicates the subway was put in place in 1865. It was filled in during the development of the shopping precinct around the railway station in 1983, after the railway lines extending beyond the current station were removed in the 1970s.

The “Please Be Tidy” signage which remains has become a somewhat cult symbol with merchandise available based upon it.
