Blackpool Trackwork January 2008
The major trackwork being undertaken in Blackpool during the winter period 2007/8 has been continuing in the opening few weeks of 2008. There are four main worksites in operation - Pleasure Beach, Manchester Square-Central Pier, Gynn Square-Norbreck and Little Bispham - and on the next couple of pages we have six images from Bispham, Gynn Square and Central Pier from the camera of Paul Galley. As ever to access other pages of the photos use the links at either the top or bottom of the page.

The worksite at Gynn Square with track still in situ in the foreground and further on removed along with the trackbed.

Still towards Bispham on 11th January 2008 we see the trackbed with a fair amount of standing water following heavy rain.
