This shows the trackbed of the former Midland Railway route southwards from Foulridge towards Colne, where it met the Lancashire & Yorkshire railway end-on in Colne station. Reinstatement of this line between Colne and Skipton is the subject of a vigorous campaign by SELRAP, strongly supported by local MP Gordon Prentice.
