Caldy
(1909 - 1954)
The station was opened on May 1 1909 to cater for the expanding housing development in the area
The station was built on an embankment with a single platform alongside the single track line. There was a wooden building incorporating a waiting room, booking office and toilets. There were no goods facilities
The major users were school children travelling to and from secondary schools in West Kirby
In 1927, there was a reduction in passenger numbers when Neston Colliery closed
In 1950, there were 9 trains stopping in each direction but there was too much competition from road users and Caldy station lost its passenger service on February 1 1954. Passenger services passed through the station until September 17 1956 when the line was closed and the tracks were lifted in early 1964
