North Cheshire Community Rail Partnership

Welcome to Ellesmere Port Station

Connecting Ellesmere Port with Liverpool and the whole Merseyrail network.

Ellesmere Port station serves the busy Cheshire town and plays an important role in linking the local community with the wider rail network. Whilst it once sat on the through Hooton – Helsby line, it is now served by regular Merseyrail trains on the Wirral line, and occasional Northern Trains services to Helsby via Ince & Elton. Merseyrail services typically use platform 1 with Northern services operating from platform 2.

Staff are available during weekday mornings and early afternoons, and a ticket vending machine is available outside of those times. Ellesmere Port station is also within walking distance of the National Waterways Museum where it is possible to explore the history of Britain’s canals
