Heysham Port

Built by the Midland Railway to provide power for the electrified railway to Morecambe and Lancaster, this is the first Heysham Power Station. Following closure, removal of the generating equipment and some rebuilding it became a workshop for the port, a role it continues to perform today. Seen from the ferry terminal road in January 2017, the railway in the foreground is the short branch to the nuclear power stations.
