Lancaster

The view along disused Platform 6 at Lancaster in January 2023. Ironically, this platform was electrified when the rest of the station was 'steam powered' as it was the departing point for the EMUs to Green Ayre, Morecambe and Heysham until 1966. The block in the foreground is the remains of an old signal post, and two cut off girders jut out from the corner of the ticket office building on the left, the remains of an overhead line support. This was an officially supervised visit to this closed off area of the station.
