Wennington railway station

Wennington railway station serves the village of Wennington in Lancashire, England. It is situated on the Leeds to Morecambe Line and operated by Northern Rail, who provide all passenger train services.
==History==

Originally opened by the "Little" North Western Railway in 1849 on their line between and Morecambe, the station was rebuilt & expanded in 1865〔Binns, p.27〕 prior to the opening of the Furness and Midland Joint Railway from in 1867. Thereafter it became a busy junction, with many passenger trains calling to detach through carriages for Carnforth from the main Morecambe portion if heading west or attaching them if heading east. A number of local services (mainly from the Carnforth line) also originated or terminated there.
Much of this activity ended with the withdrawal of local stopping trains on the Carnforth line in 1960 (though it remained in use for through services) and the closure of the Lancaster line to passengers in January 1966.〔Binns, p.42〕 The latter was then closed to all traffic the following year and subsequently lifted, although the abandoned trackbed can still be seen. The original station buildings have also been demolished and replaced by shelters, although the signal box remained in use as the last remaining block post on the line until 1988 - it was then closed & permanently "switched out" but wasn't formally abolished and removed until 2006.
The junction was the site of a derailment on 11 August 1880 in which eight people were killed.〔L.T.C. Rolt (1955), ''Red for Danger'', pages 164-5〕
