Skelmersdale Branch : ウィキペディア英語版 | Skelmersdale Branch
The Skelmersdale Branch was a standard gauge railway (SKE〔(Engineers' Line Reference & mileages via ''railwaycodes'' )〕) which connected the Liverpool, Ormskirk and Preston Railway at Ormskirk with Rainford Junction via Skelmersdale. At Rainford it connected with the Liverpool and Bury Railway and the St. Helens Railway. It was built by the East Lancashire Railway, which was taken over by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway shortly afterward.〔(Local History Archives )〕 The steam railmotor which served the line was sometimes known locally as the "Skem Dodger" and other times as the "Skem Jazzer". ==History== Opened on 1 March 1858, passenger services ended 5 November 1956, with goods trains to Rainford ceasing on 16 November 1961 and to Skelmersdale on 4 November 1963. Since then Skelmersdale has had no rail connection but has grown considerably.
