Hapton

A Blackpool North to York service hurries toward the small station at Hapton on 18th May 2022. The M65 curves away from the line at this point to accommodate Junction 8. Forty years earlier the cooling towers of Huncoat Power Station and its associated railway sidings would have dominated the middle distance view.
