particularly for coal heading west towards Fiddlers Ferry Power Station and Garston Docks
The line closed east of Latchford with the last freight trains running on July 7 1985 and the line was lifted to form part of the Trans-Pennine Trail cycleway and footpath
All trace of the station has now gone under an industrial estate
