Trains to Lostock Gralam - Station Details and further Information on Lostock Gralam Train Services
Lostock Gralam train station serves the village of Lostock Gralam in Cheshire, England. The station is on the Mid-Cheshire Line from Chester to Manchester Piccadilly, located 18.5 miles east of Chester.
For many years the station had a run-down appearance and had been downgraded to a request stop. The main station building was demolished on Sunday 8 July 2007. As a result of the "Lostock Triangle development", the station is no longer a request stop, despite the fact that the development is not complete and passenger numbers have actually fallen in recent years.
Monday to Saturday there is an hourly service westbound to Chester and eastbound to Manchester Piccadilly (with a couple of peak hour extras to/from Stockport). On Sundays there is now a two-hourly service to Chester and Manchester, with the latter continuing to Bolton and Southport. Through trains to Manchester hadn't previously operated on Sundays since the early 1990s, passenger instead having to change at Altrincham onto the Manchester Metrolink to continue their journeys. |
