My guess is either Exchange Station Manchester (now long gone) which was connected to Victoria Station or Manchester Piccadilly Station.
Just found this in the history of the film:
In fact, there are very many excellent and interesting shots and scenes involving trains and a station which, though never seen in a wide shot so that one can be certain, appears to be St. Pancras. Throughout the story, people keep getting on and off of trains, and anyone interested in the trains being used in 1935, both inside and out, will have plenty to see.
