Steam Railway at Agecroft Power Station
Saddle tank locomotive "Agecroft No 2", complete with replica 1830s carriages, gives passenger rides during the open day to mark the last day of operation for the three steam locomotives at Agecroft Power Station. The power station's two huge stacks and cooling towers, which can be seen behind the locomotives, were demolished in 1994 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/ianfitter/sets/72157623104950245/ flickr). The site now has a mixed development of housing, parklands and a prison, HMP Forest Bank which was opened in January 2000. The locomotive has been preserved and is now operating on the Ribble Steam Railway https://ribblesteam.org.uk/2-uncategorised/45-rsh-7485-1947-agecroft-no-2 .
