West Allerton
(1939 - )
West Allerton railway station serves the suburb of Allerton, Liverpool in the north west of England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by Northern and it is situated southeast of Liverpool Lime Street on the main line
to Runcorn and Crewe
The station opened on January 2 1939 with Allerton station to the south, which closed closed in 2005 to make way for Liverpool South Parkway which opened the following year
There are four platforms, two of which, platforms 1 and 2, are located on the fast lines and are where most trains stop. Platforms 3 and 4 are on the slow lines and are used infrequently, mainly where faster services are booked to overtake stopping services on this stretch of line
All platforms have a basic glass and metal shelter; the central island platform (2-3) is fully enclosed, whereas the outer platforms have single sided ones. Help points are provided for emergency use and for train running information plus a P.A system to provide automated service announcements
The station building on the over bridge has a staffed booking office that is open during hours when trains are serving the station but there is no step-free access to the platforms, as the footbridge from the ticket office to platform level has stairs
