Trains to Wigan North Western - Station Details and further Information on Wigan North Western Train Services

Wigan North Western train station is one of two main train stations serving the town of Wigan, Greater Manchester. It is a moderately-sized station on the West Coast Main Line. It is operated by Virgin Trains, and is also served by Northern Rail. London Midland used to offer a daily service to Preston during the evening rush hour on weekdays which called here, but this was withdrawn at the end of the 2007-8 timetable.

Wigan's other main station is Wigan Wallgate, which is about 100 metres away, on the opposite side of the street named Wallgate, for services to Manchester, Southport and Kirkby. Both stations are centrally located on the southern fringe of Wigan town centre.

The station is served by Virgin Trains. There is an hourly service on the West Coast Main Line from London Euston, which continues northwards to Preston, Lancaster, Carlisle and Glasgow Central. There is also an hourly service in the opposite direction generally calling at Warrington Bank Quay and London Euston only (although certain trains call additionally at one of Crewe, Rugby or Milton Keynes Central). It is also served by Virgin's services from Birmingham New Street to Glasgow Central and Edinburgh. The single London Midland service from Birmingham New Street to Preston that used to call in the evening was withdrawn at the end of the 2007-8 timetable.

Northern Rail operates a half-hourly local service from Liverpool Lime Street, along the Liverpool-Wigan Line via St Helens Central with a handful of services running to Liverpool via the Lowton Chord and Newton-le-Willows. There is also an hourly service from Liverpool which continues north along the West Coast Main Line to Preston, then usually on to Blackpool North. Northern Rail also operates occasional services to Manchester Victoria and Manchester Piccadilly. In recent years, most services from Manchester have used Wigan Wallgate station.

Northern Rail services are operated by a mix of Pacer and Sprinter units. Virgin Trains services southwards to London Euston and northwards to Carlisle and Glasgow are always operated by electric Pendolino trains. Other destinations are served by diesel Voyager units.
