Burscough Bridge Railway Station

Burscough Bridge railway station (Pronounced Burs/co Bridge) serves the town of Burscough in Lancashire, England. It is a main stop on the Manchester-Southport Line. A bus interchange has recently been constructed next to the station, including a shop and cafe.

History

Until 1962 when the passenger service was withdrawn, trains from Southport to Burscough Bridge could continue to Burscough Junction and onto Ormskirk, using a curve which has since been closed and lifted.
