Several websites proved valuable:

Maps were mostly obtained from the National Library of Scotland

Background on the two pubs came from Closed Pubs and the Brewery History Society

Some of Driver Ron Prince's photos have been posted by the Macclesfield Express

​

Finally, a big thank you to Alek Adamski, Kenneth Oldfield, John Slater and John Worthington for detailed discussions and access to their own photographs; to James Cookson for giving me his original LMS 1:1250 plans of the station; and those who shared their personal recollections through Facebook, especially the group Macclesfield Memories, some of which inspired the cameos below.
