English: Tar refinery, Preston Docklands The Lanfina tar refinery at the north-west corner of the Preston Dock estate still receives its bitumen by rail, worked through the docklands by the private Ribble Steam Railway (RSR). At one time a railway siding used to extend right into the works and the remains of this are seen here crossing Chain Caul Way. Today, however, a new siding has been provided closer to the RSR and the bitumen is transferred from the rail wagons into the works by pipeline along the overhead gantry.
