Hoghton
Lost Railfreight BR Type 2 25144 heads down Hoghton Bank, on a pick up goods with vans for the ROF complex at Euxton, on a frosty 1st December 1978. That huge complex produced munitions from the 1930s but was later wound down and closed around 2006. The site is now covered by housing, known as Buckshaw, which has its own railway station that opened in 2011. #COP26
