About your departure station
Opened in 1855 for the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, Upholland served Lancashire's mining communities.
The station closed in 1960 but reopened in 1990 after local campaigning.
Today, Northern Rail provides limited services on the Kirkby branch line, connecting this former coal mining area to Liverpool.
The station's survival reflects the importance of rail in preserving transport links for rural Lancashire communities amid industrial decline.
