Seaforth Sands railway station
- Seaforth Sands railway station
Seaforth Sands railway station was a station located on the Liverpool Overhead Railway at Seaforth West of Crosby Road South, Knowsley Road and Rimrose Road junction. It opened on the 30 April 1894. It closed on 30 December 1956. It was the last station opened by the LOR and was the last overhead station before the junction with the North Mersey Branch. The weight gauge meant the while LOR trains could operate on the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway electrified network, the reverse was not true.
As LOR trains ran at a lower voltage than the Lancashire and Yorkshire electric trains, LOR trains were permitted to operate with their motors in series mode only on the North Mersey Branch.
