Parkside 2nd
(1839 - 1878)
In 1839 the original Parkside 1st Station was replaced with more substantial facilities than the original station which was nothing more than a small trackside cottage
The new station was further east than the first Parkside station, and the move was required for the opening of the line from Parkside North Union Junction to Preston
As the 19th Century progressed locomotive designs improved and engines were easily able to make the run from Liverpool to Manchester without having to take on more water
Also in 1847 a west to north curve was created to the Wigan line which meant that trains from could now progress north without calling at Parkside 2nd station
Also Parkside 2nd was in a remote location and it closed for goods services on February 1 1877 and to passengers on May 1 1878
The station was demolished but the Parkside station house was still used as a private dwelling in the 1930s but has now been demolished
