Poulton le Fylde station
Looking east towards Station Road overbridge from the end of the existing platform. The platform originally continued beyond the bridge.
There used to be additional through lines on the right (south side).
It appears that the track has been lowered under the bridge to provide clearance for the overhead wires. For the time being, a semaphore signal remains in use.
It remains to be seen following electrification whether direct services to London using Pendolino trains (9- or 11-car) will call here. This will require the platforms to be extended again or opening of the train doors to be inhibited beyond the platform. The existing single daily service uses 5-car Voyager trains and does call here.

Poulton-le-Fylde railway station, Lancashire
Opened in 1896 by the Preston & Wyre Joint Railway when the line through the town was moved to a new alignment. The line used to split just beyond the station.
View west towards Blackpool (North) and Fleetwood, shortly after the line was electrified, the platforms shortened, the vegetation cut back, and the line towards Fleetwood disconnected. For a pre-electrification view from the same position some 8 years earlier, see Image
