Burscough Bridge

The LCGB Lancastrian railtour from Liverpool Lime Street, hauled by 45305 calls at Burscough Bridge on 6 April 1968 on its way to Southport. The junction signals above the third coach cover the north curve (left) towards Rufford & Preston, the line to Wigan (straight on) and the South Curve (right) towards Burscough Junction and Ormskirk. The chimneys and factory behind the locomotive have now gone. Behind the junction signal is the A59 road overbridge, from which the steps down to the eastbound (Wigan) platform are just visible.
