Notes: Opened in 1896 Langton Dock was a typical LOR station
being located on the elevated line 16 feet above street level
on the iron structure that carried the line above Liverpool's
busy Dock Road and directly above the Dock Boards railway which
ran throughout the length of the dock system linking the various
goods facilities. Upon opening it was served by trains between
Dingle and Seaforth Sands stations. In1905 an extension was
made to Seaforth & Litherland on the L&Y Liverpool to
Southport line. However Langton Dock Station closed in 1906
and today there is no trace of it ever having existed.
