Скачать или смотреть Half an Hour at (58) - St Helens Junction Station 29.8.2014 - Class 60 142 150 185

This "Half an Hour at" video takes me to one of the oldest railway stations in England, situated on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway line. St Helens Junction stands about 2 miles from the centre of the town, and used to be linked to the St Helens and Runcorn Gap Railway.

Today the station is a shadow of its former self, with reduced facilities and only local services between Manchester, Liverpool and Warrington. All facilities are situated on the Manchester bound platform. One former platform face now forms part of the main entrance into the station. The station is due to gain electric trains shortly. The adjoining stations are two of the most famous on this line, Earlestown and Rainhill.

DBS 60099 in Tata Steel livery passes through from Seaforth to Tinsley, plus there is a selection of Northern DMU's and a First Trans Pennine speeding through.
