Northern Rail local services, which operate as a regular Lancaster-Morecambe shuttle.There are also a few longer-distance services (currently four per day on weekdays, two or four on Sundays depending on the time of year) from Morecambe to
Skipton andLeeds via theLeeds to Morecambe Line . In addition, the last train each weekday evening is aTranspennine Express service from Windermere, which diverts from its route to Barrow-in-Furness. This service calls at Lancaster, Bare Lane and Morecambe, before reversing, calling at Bare Lane again, then rejoining theWest Coast Main Line and continuing via Carnforth thus avoiding the 1m 7ch section of the WCML betweenHest Bank South Junction andHest Bank North Junction . This is the only scheduled service to use the original 1864 curve towards Hest Bank.External links
