Ghost Train: Keswick to Cockermouth (Lake District)

An animated past vs present look at the lost railway line from Keswick to Cockermouth in the Lake District! #lakedistrict #keswick #cumbria #cockermouth #railway
As a result of the Beeching cuts, the line beyond Keswick to Cockermouth and Workington was closed on 18 April 1966, leaving a single line branch between Keswick and Penrith. The station survived for six years before closing on 6 March 1972. The main station building has been used as a hotel in recent years but most of the other structures have been demolished and the land used for car parking. A trail managed by the Lake District National Park Authority has been established along part of the former railway line.
