Seeing
the ever increasing popularity of railway transportation and to cater
to the increasing needs of the passengers, more number of service
providers are coming into picture. Merseyrail is one such popular name
in the world of railway transportation, mainly centered at Liverpool. It
is the official name of the national rail network, which has been
leased for a period of 25 years (till 2028). The current Merseyrail
network includes five pre-existing lines and a couple of new lines as
well. These rail lines mainly include Mersey Railway, Lancashire and
Yorkshire Railway, Wirral Railway and Great Western Railway, Cheshire
Lines Committee Railway, and the London and North Western Railway. Some
of the operational paths, upon which the entire network operates, are
listed below in this article.
Northern Line
This is one of the main original lines that are fully controlled by Merseyrail. This rail line operates from Hunts Cross through Brunswil Station. There are a good number of services that operate in this part of Liverpool. Regular trains run every 15 minutes from Monday to Saturday. A five minute halt at each station of this section is kept in order to make it easy for the boarders and those who have to leave. Connections to various other parts like Manchester Piccadilly, Manchester Victoria and Wigan Wallgate are also provided by this line.
