Barton Moss 1st formerly Reid's Farm
(1831 - 1862)


Barton Moss 1st station on the L&M railway was opened in September 1831 as Reids Farm station

The early wayside stopping places on Chat Moss had no platforms and the station would have been served by local trains running between the two cities or on shorter journeys. A steady stream of express and goods services would have passed through

Barton Moss was replaced on May 1 1862 by a 2nd Barton Moss station located a mile further east
