Sandhills
(1850 - )
Sandhills station opened in 1850 as an intermediate station when the railway was extended from its previous terminal at Waterloo to Liverpool Exchange. It had four wooden platforms until
it was rationalised in 1973
An extensive refurbishment plan for the station was suggested in 2006 which involved the building of a completely new booking hall and greatly improved facilities on the platform. A large canopy was constructed
The station is staffed and there are toilets, platform CCTV and a booking office plus departure and arrival screens on the platform for passenger information. Each of the platforms has sheltered seating
