Although the Lune Aqueduct of the Lancaster Canal was built (in 1797) more than 40 years before the railway one of its five 70' arches was able to accomodate the double track Wennington line. Later, Lancaster Power Station was built here and a third line under the arch served coal sidings operated by fireless locomotives See image 27588 until closure in 1981.
