Railway line to the west seen from Lytham Railway Station, Station Square, Lytham
Lytham Railway Station is on the line from Blackpool South to Preston. This view is looking towards Blackpool South. The service on this line runs beyond Preston to a few other places but services are now hourly, and two hourly on Sundays. In the winter months there is no Sunday service. Years ago the line carried on east beyond Blackpool South to the now demolished Blackpool Central station, and it was double tracked.
In recent years there has been some suggestion that the line could be electrified as a light rail or tramway operation, and linked to the recently modernised Blackpool tramway at Blackpool South. There are no definite plans for this but it wouldn't be surprising if such a scheme emerged in the next decade or two. Such a line could perhaps link up with the proposed tramway at Preston which is being promoted by a private company. Only time will tell if such a scheme materialises.

Lytham Station
Modern trains have no need for the long platforms originally provided at Lytham which date from the days when the station would have handled excursion traffic.

Lytham railway station
The original station on this site was opened in 1863 as the terminus of the Blackpool & Lytham Railway, with the Preston & Wyre Joint railway from Preston having a separate terminus in Station Road. When the two companies were amalgamated, the B&L station was rebuilt in 1874 as a through passenger station. It is seen here, view west from Ballam Road bridge. The elegant former station building is currently used as the Station Tavern. (The P&WJR terminus was used for goods until the 1960s).
