Carr Lane Halt
(1921 - 1930)


Carr Lane Halt opened in July 1920

A short platform and a simple waiting shelter were provided for passengers. In 1921, the KER decided to extend the platform

With the introduction of the 1920/21 winter timetable some trains stopped by request on Thursdays and Saturdays only. By the Winter 1921-22 timetable all trains would call but only on request. As the halt was unmanned, passengers had to flag the train down in order to board. Alighting could be accomplished by giving notice to the guard at the previous station.

There were seven trains running between Knott End and either Garstang Town or Garstang & Catterall and five trains in the opposite direction

On March 31 1930, Carr Lane Halt was closed but goods vehicles still used the line until November 13 1950
