Canada Dock formerly Bootle
(1870 - 1941)
The passenger station at Canada Dock opened on July 1 1870 as Bootle. The station building which housed the booking office was at street level on the east side of Derby Road opposite access gates on the west side that led to the goods station. The building was single-storey red brick structure at road overbridge level, supported on iron pillars
Within the building were a booking hall, booking office and waiting room. The line at this point was below street level, and from the rear of the station building a set of wooden steps led down to a single brick-built platform
To both the north and south of the platform were numerous sidings that were part of the goods station and the last goods train ran on September 3 1982
To the east of the station the lines merged into the double-track railway of the Bootle branch and ran into Canada Dock tunnel
On September 5 1881 a line opened from the Bootle branch to Alexandra Dock. It had its junction with the branch at Atlantic Dock Junction which was at the eastern end of the Canada Dock tunnel. With the opening of the new line, Bootle station was renamed Canada Dock
