Any last requests?

Foxfield station on the Cumbrian coast line sits on the eastern side of the Duddon estuary. The sparseley populated area only seems to merit a request stop service but the station still has much character with the Furness Railway built waiting shelters incorporated into the signal box structure.

 

The station was more significant in times past as it was the junction for services to Coniston.

 

The stationmasters house and old water tower are still present as well as sempahore signals.

 

There is however no Sunday service so I had the place to myself on this flying visit on Sunday 17th September 2017.
