With planning approval received, work has started in creating a temporary servicing facility for Northern DMUs beside the WCML near to Farington Jct when the electrification work at Blackpool North prevents the units going there each night. The view is north with the WCML on the right. An early arrival was a new set of buffers at the end of the headshunt but all the track in the sidings appears to have been lifted and is being replaced.
