Perks Avenue Railway Station
Description
A brutalist modern station, Perks Avenue took its name from the notoriously seedy red-light district in the surrounding area - despite the proximity of the police station at Tilly Row.
History
This station supplanted the antiquated but evocative Whitlock Way rail station in the 1970s, when Malton Rail upgraded the east-west service through Pegton. The erection of this forbidding station did nothing to dispel the sleazy atmosphere pervading the area, however; the station soon became a magnet for drug dealers, pimps, and politicians on a surreptitious night out.
It continues to be an area attractive to those with serious difficulties socializing normally, viz. zombies.
