Colne: Railway north of Bridge 101
What used to be a busy double-track railway with through service to Skipton and connections to Scotland is now just a single line truncated at Colne, which supports an hourly service by 'Pacer' diesel train, all stations to Blackpool South. It is not surprising that most travellers prefer the comfort of their own private motorcar.

Colne: Knotts Lane
Seen from the western end where it meets the A56. From here, Knotts Lane runs parallel to Colne Water, (which is on the left) until it meets Bridge Street coming downhill from Albert Road. At this point, Knotts Lane makes a sharp right turn, uphill and into the country.
