Notes: Tue Brook Station was situated on the LNWR Canada Dock
Branch which ran from Edge Hill through the northern suburbs of
Liverpool to the Docks. The line opened to Canada Dock in 1866
for goods traffic and as far as Tue Brook for passenger services.
In 1870 a passenger service was extended along the line to Canada
Dock. On 5th September 1881 a branch was opened to Alexander Dock
which was also served by passenger trains. All of the stations
on the line had closed by 31.5.1948 although it continued to be
used by Liverpool Lime Street - Southport through coaches from
and to London Euston. Latterly this service was offered by a connecting
DMU but when the Merseyrail Loop and Link line opened in 1977
it was withdrawn.
Today the line is a very busy freight route to the north Liverpool
docks.
