Blackpool South railway station
Encyclopedia : B : BL : BLA : Blackpool South railway station
Blackpool South railway station is a single platform stop at the end of the Fylde coast branch line from Kirkham and Wesham. It is unmanned and has only limited services along its route.
The station serves the suburban south of the tourist town of Blackpool and is currently only served by trains running through Preston into East Lancashire and terminating at Colne, with occasional runs to Clitheroe.
In the past this was a busy station. The direct rail line from Kirkham came in here - the track bed is now the road called Yeadon Way. The line extended north from here to Blackpool Central. There were extensive sidings to accommodate the many excursion trains which came to Blackpool.
