Would be inclined to think it reversed to get to the water tank.
Wonder if there is anyone around with extensive knowledge of the old track layout ?

Thetrain is standing on the eastbound platform on the Blackburn - Burnley section. If you look at the top of the picture, a figure 6 can be seen. This platform still exists as the eastbound platform today.
