Рет қаралды 1,583
Join me as I explore Merseyrail Northern Line and share facts along the way.
Where can you spot a Victorian fountain?
Which are the closest two Northern Line stations?
What is Another Place?
And, which station could be my new favourite on the Northern Line?
All and much more will be revealed as I explore the Northern Line which runs underneath Liverpool city centre towards Hunts Cross, Southport, Ormskirk, and Headbolt Lane.
Stations visited in this video include Liverpool Central, Cressington, Liverpool South Parkway, Bootle New Strand, Waterloo, Ainsdale, Hillside, Southport, Orrell Park, Old Roan, Maghull North, Aughton Park, Ormskirk, Rice Lane, Kirkby, and Headbolt Lane.

Huyton station also has an island platform ? I don't know why ? Maybe because the track splits ? Great video. Thanks 😊

This is amazing thank you. I spent my entire youth riding between Liverpool and Southport. I lived off the Blundellsands and Crosby station as I lived in Crosby. Fond memories.

Frank Hornby used Maghull Station, as the model for his railway stations, in his Dublo train range.

Great video Chris. Cressington station was my favorite in this video. Never been to the UK but I love the historic buildings and water fountain from 1871, here in central Canada we just don't have many historic buildings around, let alone still in use!

Was one of my local stations - when the line reopened we switched from West Allerton - and always felt it was a rather special place.

Many thanks for your kind comments. Cressington is a special station with so much to like. I must visit Canada at some point.

@@alanmills6757 Agree that Cressington is special. I've passed through but can't recall ever getting off at West Allerton so that is an idea for a future video. I've alighted in the past at Liverpool South Parkway and Mossley Hill

The northern line & all stations from the former Liverpool Exchange to Seaforth were 4 track & platforms stations. Even Sandhills. Waterloo was the terminus briefly before the Southport line was extended to Liverpool.
