Edge Hill railway station is a railway station that serves the district of Edge Hill, Liverpool, England and is one of the oldest railway stations in the world.[1]
There have been two stations of that name. The first stood a short distance south-west of the present station and its remains are still visible, although the site is not open to the public.[2]
Edge Hill is the first station after departure from Liverpool Lime Street. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by Northern Trains. Other services by Avanti West Coast, East Midlands Railway, TransPennine Express and West Midlands Trains pass through the station, although they are non-stop.
