(Photo: Geograph) BRITAIN’S transport systems have certainly come a long way over the years. Trains are getting faster and new rail routes are being built every year to keep the country better connected. However, in order to progress some railway stations and routes have had to be abandoned. As a result, there are many abandoned and disused stations lurking around the county. Some Lancashire stations were forced to shut for practical and economical reasons. The county was hit hard by the Beeching cuts, when more than 5,000 miles of track and nearly 1,500 stations were closed between 1964 and 1970. Other routes simply weren t used enough and couldn t handle the competition that the development of trams and cars brought with them.
