554 We bought the train station from famous Oasis cover- fans flock here for selfies 554
A couple bought an abandoned Victorian train station before transforming it into a holiday cottage having no idea it was the scene of one of Oasis' most famous record covers.Tim Collis, 58, and husband Ryan Phelps, 53, purchased the derelict master house and waiting room at Cromford Railway Station in Derbyshire for £390,000. But it was only when they got inside their new home and saw the artwork for Oasis' first number one Some Might Say that they realised they had purchased a piece of Britpop history.The Grade II-listed station is featured on the cover of one of Oasis' most famous singles which was released in 1995 and helped shoot them to superstardom.In the photo, Liam Gallagher can be seen waving from the railway bridge while brother Noel is sprinkling a watering can on the platform below. Tim said enquires for bookings had #&34;gone supersonic#&34; since news of the reunion was announced while fans have been flocking there for selfies and to recreate the cover. And he revealed despite being an Oasis fan, he did not know about the historic building's connection with the band until after he bought it.
