Firsby Railway Station, Lincolnshire, art


A B1 steam locomotive arrives with a passenger train on the main line whilst a new DMU train waits in the Skegness branch platform at Firsby railway station, Lincolnshire circa 1960.
Firsby served as a main line station and a terminus for two branch lines to Skegness and Spilsby. The station was popular for its seaside connection to Skegness but was closed in 1970 following the Beeching Report.
