About this cam
Railcam UK's camera on the East Lancashire Railway. The operator states: "East Lancashire Railway - Burrs Country Park Station Platform camera1 - looking North towards Sumerseat & Ramsbottom."
The East Lancashire Railway runs twelve miles up the Irwell valley from Bury Bolton Street to Rawtenstall, with a branch east to Heywood, and it is one of the busiest preserved railways in the north of England.
Railcam UK streams a network of cameras along the line. The operator describes this one precisely: "East Lancashire Railway - Burrs Country Park Station Platform camera1 - looking North towards Sumerseat & Ramsbottom." It adds that the installation is "one of a whole suite of cameras in partnership with the ELR", and directs viewers to the railway itself at https://www.eastlancsrailway.org.uk/ for timetables and events.
The streams carry the joint credit "(c) Railcam UK / East Lancashire Railway".
What to watch for
The Irwell valley climb north of Bury: the operator states the camera looks "North towards Sumerseat & Ramsbottom", so trains are working uphill away from you. Steam on the ELR's Bury to Rawtenstall service, and heritage diesels on the same road.
