New Temporary emergency station for Workington

Due to Workington being cut in half as the road bridges are down they are going to put a station on the other side of the river Derwent as that is the only local bridge that is intact. Should be in operation by the weekend according to the NR chap being interviewed on the radio. Two platforms, shelters, a footbridge over the track and a large car park will all be in place by then
