Newer Mobile site
A new mobile site has been ceated. Whilst this page will remain you may find Trainspots mobile better suited to a smart phone.
Road directions
Best from A49 / M62 junction. From junction head north up A49 for 100 yards to traffic lights. Filter left to supermarket but at roundabout take 2nd exit and continue down road keeping supermarket to left. Continue to T-junction whereupon turn right and continue along road for 400 - 500 yards to left hand turn. Site is immediately obvious so park car and choose spot.
Parking
Both sides BUT leave enough room for heavy lorries to pass on way to / from local scrap yard.
Public transport
Quite poor - most people arrive by car.
Amenities
None at the location, best to head back to the retail area where there is a Burger King or a B&Q store with a cafe.
Railway Gen Group
North West Gen
Photographic notes
Given the track curvature at the location shots are better from the east side in the morning and west side in the afternoon. The sun is on the west side of the line around 11:00 in the winter or 12:00 in the summer.
