"Do we still need permision as i thoght it was ok if it was for personal use and had a Vailid ticket plus if permison is needed then what do you do if the Station is unstaffed or is it jJust MAIN stations as nobody has said wnything to me at Lime St" (TOUCH WOOD)

Very interesting. It seems that you dont have the right to photograph on private property. So is a railway station private property? (I think it might be, especially if you have to buy a ticket to get in) And if it is private property, can only the owner ask you to leave i.e. Network Rail, and not a tennant such as train operating company staff?

The plot thickens

On the subject of football huligans, though I didn't see Piccadilly myself, from the photos it looks a disaster what has happened. Such a nice and welcoming station (am I correct in saying it won a 1st prize award for being the best station in the UK? I also think Glasgow came second stangely enough!).

I've got to be honest here.

Tens of thousands of Glaswegian football fans descend on Manchester...and many of them are drunk and aggressive? Was anyone really surprised?
