Lancaster (Quayside)
The sidings on the Quay at Lancaster were accessed by a reverse spur from the Glasson Dock branch see image 29304 that emerged through this short cutting to the left of the Nairn Williamson factory gates. The factory itself, making wall coverings, was also rail served. The quayside sidings finally closed in 1969, some five years after the Glasson branch had been closed beyond the junction with the quay line. Since this image was captured the Nairn Williamson site has been demolished for housing development and the last traces of the Quayside railway have disappeared.
