Huncoat Power Station

Fireless 0-6-0 Huncoat No 3 draws coal wagons from the tippler at Huncoat Power Station between Blackburn and Burnley. Not the best quality picture but it does show the conveyors that went across the mainline and an 0-4-0F, by then out of use. Prior to 1968 the power station was also supplied directly from Huncoat Colliery by a private railway.
