Moore
(1837 - 1943)
Moore Station opened with the Crewe to Earlestown (GJR) line on July 4 1837. The double-track line passed under Runcorn Road and the station was located in a cutting
At that time, there were no raised platforms and only a simple cottage-like building which would have housed the booking facilities. Two houses were also provided at road level for station staff
The March 1850 timetable showed only 2 up and 4 down trains called at Moore Monday to Saturday and no trains called on Sundays
By the 1870s, the station had raised platforms. The main facilities were on the down platform (Earlestown direction). They consisted of a modest single-storey brick building. There was a similar building on the up platform that housed waiting facilities
On January 1 1917, the station was one of many that closed both as a wartime economy measure and to release manpower for military service; it did not reopen until February 1 1919
The LMS timetable for the summer of 1932 showed 7 up and 10 down trains Monday to Saturday
After the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939, passenger services were reduced throughout the country. As Moore had so few services, the LMS closed it on February 1 1943
The station had been completely demolished by the 1960s but the station house survived and was still in use as a private residence
