Lostock Gralam railway station serves the village of Lostock Gralam in Cheshire, England. The station is on the Mid-Cheshire Line from Chester to Manchester Piccadilly, located 30 km (18½ miles) east of Chester.
For many years the station had a run-down appearance and had been downgraded to a request stop. The main station building was demolished on Sunday 8th July 2007. As a result of the "Lostock Triangle development", the station is no longer a request stop, [http://www.northernrail.org/pdfs/timetables/200804/17.pdf] despite the fact that the development is not complete and passenger numbers have actually fallen in recent years.
