About Rainford Train Station

Opened in 1858 by the St Helens Railway, Rainford served Lancashire's coal traffic.

The station's simple design reflected industrial priorities.

Surviving mine closures through community use, it retains original character.

Handling 50,000 annual passengers, it maintains local transport links.

Rainford represents the challenging transition of industrial stations to commuter use.

Its continued operation demonstrates railways' role in sustaining communities through economic change, providing essential mobility in areas where alternative transport options are limited, while preserving heritage infrastructure in this rural Lancashire village.
