St Germain's
(1879 - 1961)
St Germain’s station opened on September 23 1879 as part of the Manx Northern Railway's St Johns to Ramsey line
St Germains had a substantial sandstone station building that was situated on the east side of the station site. Initially, only a single track passed through the station site which did not have raised platforms. Instead the track was ballasted up to rail level
Shortly after opening a passing loop was provided along with a goods siding
Initially, train services operated to St Johns and Ramsey with some services going on to Douglas via the IOMR's Douglas to Peel line
Due to lack of traffic, St Germain’s station closed to passengers in July 1961 although it was not unknown for locals to board and alight at St Germain’s station well after this date. Presumably these people were locals known to the railway staff but the line passing through St Germain’s was closed completely on November 13 1965
The station re-opened to passenger services in 1967 but closed again on September 6 1968 this time for good. The line passing through St Germain’s was used for a freight service of oil tanks until October 1969 after which all traffic ceased
Today, a footpath and cycleway pass through the site
