Unless you know where to look the old platform at Ribbleton is easy to miss. It lies about 200 yards north of the Cromwell Road cycleway access point. It only operated as a public station from 1863 to 1866 when it was replaced by Ribbleton (Gammer Lane) but it saw occasional use by troop trains thereafter and the stonework of the platform can still be found in the undergrowth alongside the old trackbed.
