Mickle Trafford
(1889 - 1951)
Mickle Trafford was a later addition to the route opening on December 2 1889. The station was located on the eastern edge of its village namesake just over 3 miles from Chester
The station was on an embankment and was accessed from Station Road (which passed under the line to the north of the station) by a sloping driveway that connected to the north end of the Down platform (Warrington direction)
Both platforms were constructed from timber and the Down platform had the booking office which was housed in a simple single storey timber hut. A waiting room and toilets were also provided
On the Up platform there was a similar but smaller building that housed a waiting room. The Up platform was linked to the Down by a foot crossing at the northern end of the station
Mickle Trafford station did not have any goods facility
The December 1895 timetable showed seven trains in each direction Monday to Saturday but there were no trains calling on Sundays
The 1949 timetable showed a very sparse service and Mickle Trafford was not well used and BR[LMR] withdrew the passenger service on April 2 1951 (the former CLC station nearby had been closed on February 12 1951)
The station was demolished after closure leaving no trace
