This is the front page of a pamphlet produced by Visit St. Helens, promoting the Heritage Rail Trail. This is a bus tour, going since 1999, taking people to visit 10 historic sites in the St. Helens area connected with the Liverpool and Manchester and Warrington and Newton Railways, including the Locomotive Trials Exhibition at Rainhill Library, the Sankey Viaduct and the Huskisson Memorial at Parkside. The image here shows a diesel multiple unit travelling across the Sankey Viaduct
