Former route of Colne to Skipton railway
This modern road Vivary Way did not exist when the railway came this way and must be a major obstacle to the re-opening campaign. In the trees beyond this Colne bypass is a substantial bridge carrying Barrowford Road over the railway of six lines at that point.

End of the line at Colne
From 1848 to 1970 trains ran between Colne and Skipton with three intermediate station at Earby, Thornton and Elslack and a branch to Barnoldswick. The track was removed several years ago and trains from Preston terminate here. As of 2022, a local action group SELRAP (Skipton and East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership) was proposing reinstating the 20km link with just one new station at Earby, offering through trains to Leeds.
