Bamfurlong

Grubby GBRf 66719 'Metroland' has just joined the Down Goods line at Haydock Branch Junction on 23rd February 2022. It is seen passing through the site of Bamfurlong station (closed 1950) and is signalled to swing west at Bamfurlong Junction onto the St. Helens route heading for Tuebrook Sidings in Liverpool. The stone terminal on the truncated Haydock branch appears busy as, soon after this trip working of empties departed, another loaded train from Tuebrook arrived.
