Ribbleton [1st]

Looking towards Longridge on the old trackbed cycle path between Deepdale and Ribbleton in March 2019. The steel bridge carries Blackpool Road, built long after the railway opened. The line closed to passengers in 1930 but freight continued on this section until the Courtaulds complex at Red Scar closed in the late 1970s See image 24678. Note the old sleeper fencing still partly in place on the left.
