Poulton No.3 signal box was finally demolished on 20th & 21st February 2018, the last of the five boxes on the line that survived until electrification. This was the scene two days later as an Orange Platoon clears away the final traces of the structure. Apparently the demolition will allow the last mast base between Preston and Blackpool to be installed. See image 60684 taken the previous summer.
