Moore railway station

Moore railway station was a station on the Grand Junction Railway serving the village of Moore in what was then Cheshire, England. It opened on 4 July 1837 when the line opened. The station is located in Moore cutting on the south side of the road (which is now Runcorn Road) which loops through Moore village passing both this station and Daresbury, also in the village. The road crossed the railway on an over-bridge, with road access down to the station building on the down, western, side of the tracks. In 1865 there was at least one platform at the station. By 1898 there was evidence of two platforms with a structure on each platform, there was footpath from the over-bridge to the up platform. Although there are no goods facilities recorded at the station in 1904 the map shows a siding with a headshunt into a building labelled Water Works. The station closed on 1 January 1917 as a temporary war measure and reopened on 1 February 1919 and finally closed to passengers on 1 February 1943, although it was in use by railwaymen until 1952. No substantive remains exist today.
