Train Station Location

Just watched this film (luckily enough) back to back with 1966's The Frozen Dead starring Dana Andrews and realized the small train station used in this film is the exact same one used 7 years prior in The Frozen Dead. For Horror Hospital they added a couple fake "Brittlehurst" signs, and covered up a few original signs on the front of the station, but it is the same. Both films show the front entrance of the station as well as the rear loading platform. Don't know the exact location of the station, but found this an interesting tidbit to add for anyone interested.

seems similar too to the train station set used in 'The Ghost Train' (1941) but likely is not.
