Dist:0.3km<br/>View southward, towards Barrow-in-Furness and Carnforth; ex-Furness Rly. Carnforth - Barrow - Whitehaven secondary main line - still open. (Near here, in World War Two on 22/3/45, there was a massive explosion when a blazing wagon in a train of depth-charges blew up. The crew of the engine had very courageously managed to isolate the burning wagon from the rest of the train so preventing the whole lot going up; the driver was the only person killed and the fireman lived and was awarded the George Medal).

Dist:0.4km<br/>The trains were delayed somewhat one morning when a brother-in-law slept in and the gates were still shut. He no longer works with the railway! This is the coastal line between Carlisle and Kendal!

Dist:0.4km<br/>No, I'm not a trainspotter! Mrs 'A's brother used to work here: it was a trip down memory lane, not a trainspotting exercise!
