Kirkham North Junction

Blackpool South services pass at Kirkham on 29th March 2022. 156455 has just left the branch and briefly run 'wrong line' before crossing to the Up Line. 156429 has just left the station and is heading for the branch, running on the non-electrified line towards the divergence behind the camera. The old railway goods shed is still commercially used, more than fifty years after the last train left. Although not a particularly scenic location there is a very pleasant aroma from Fox's biscuits factory on the left.
