The seaside, the prom, the bright lights, the famous Blackpool Tower. People have been flocking to Blackpool since 1846 when the town was one of the wave of British holiday resorts that boomed off the back of the arrival of the railways. Blackpool Pleasure Beach amusement park was added to the town's attractions in 1896 and over a century later it's still pulling in the crowds as one of the most-visited tourist destinations in the UK. It also boasts the largest number of rollercoasters in any amusement park in the UK, currently standing at ten within the 44-acre site. Blackpool Pleasure Beach is the one-but-last stop on the Blackpool branch line, which swings around the south of the Fylde peninsula, past Lytham St Annes. The station opened in 1987 to bring visitors direct to the amusement park and sees over 90,000 passengers pass through every year.
