Foxfield

Northern 156475 restarts from the Foxfield request stop with a Barrow to Workington service on 27 September. This station, in an exposed location on the Duddon estuary, was until 1954 the junction for Coniston and had an overall roof to allow passengers to change under cover. There is now just a small waiting shelter. The fine signal box, like the others between Carnforth, Barrow and Carlisle, is scheduled to close in 2021.
