SEMAPHORES' INDIAN SUMMER

I am sure that I will be corrected if wrong, but Blackpool North possibly has the biggest display of semaphore signals on Network Rail, though others have a good claim to fame, such as Worcester and Shrewsbury. On 6 April 2017 Arriva Northern Rail Class 150 numbered 150144 arrives with a working from Hazel Grove.

On the afternoon of my visit there had been an earlier breakdown causing a certain amount of chaos with the usual planned platform arrivals and departures being discarded in favour of a more pragmatic approach, it worked!
