Vickers Gun Range Sidings [Eskmeals]

Looking west along the remains of the short Eskmeals (Vickers Gun Range Sidings) branch to the coastal ranges that are still in use today and can be seen in the distance. Opened by the Furness Railway in 1897 and still in regular use in-the 1980s but believed to have been lifted in mid 1990s.
