The widening trackbed beyond the bridge and the old crossover are reminders that Cherry Tree was a junction, for the direct line to Chorley, until 1960. Now an unstaffed halt on the Blackburn to Preston line this picture looks west towards the next station at Pleasington. The former goods shed is still in the old goods yard alongside the Blackburn platform but now used as a small industrial unit.
