Blackpool North
Panorama of Blackpool North station, as seen from the Tower in January 2016. In the foreground the grey car park with the Wilko sign occupies the site of the old Blackpool Talbot Road station and will be replaced by the new tram terminus (See recent news item). The present day station uses the old excursion platforms and beyond them, and Blackpool No.2 signal box, the maintenance depot sidings can be seen with a trio of Northern DMUs present. The prominent landmark is the Warbreck water tower whilst upper left Heysham Power Station can also be seen, illustrating what an amazing viewpoint the Tower provides on a clear day.
