Summary

Description
English: Entwistle railway station. The remote Entwistle station is served by Northern Rail services on the Manchester Victoria/Bolton 'Ribble Valley' Line towards Blackburn and Clitheroe.

The station is 6 miles north of Bolton. 567715 Entwistle is the closest station to Edgworth, but lack of parking and a difficult approach along minor roads make it unpopular with commuters. Owing to the remote location of Entwistle it is a request stop. This means passengers wishing to alight must signal, as they would for a bus, and those wishing to depart a train must inform the conductor. The station has been used as a location for the filming of Jeffrey Archer's First Among Equals the sequences at the fictional Redfern Station were filmed there. It was also renamed Middlewood when used in Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere staring Peter Kay.

Following a £40,000 revamp in August 2007 it is hoped that extra services will call at the station http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/news/1707794.station_to_blossom_with_more_trains/
