Midge Hall

153359 on an Ormskirk to Preston service comes to a stand at Midge Hall SB as the signalman prepares to receive the token for the section from Rufford on 24 Jun 2008. A local group is lobbying for the reopening of Midge Hall station using the slogan Youve stopped
the train, now let us get on.
[When the station closed in 1961 there was a sparse population in the area. Since then major housing development has taken place with more in the offing on the nearby former Leyland Trucks vehicle test track.]
