Kirkham North Junction

A Northern Class 142 on a Blackpool South to Colne service comes off the branch at Kirkham North Jct on 29 July 2011. The signalbox on the right was demolished in 2017 at the time of the electrification from Preston to Blackpool North after which signalling is controlled from Manchester ROC. The track layout has also been radically changed (rationalised) but Kirkham & Wesham station has gained an extra platform.
