Aigburth railway station

 Another on the Hunts Cross line, one of the three that was there from the beginning as well! Due to this, Aigburth is quite similar to Cressington in its design. It can only be accessed from one side of the track, on which there is a quite old and elegant station building. Both platforms can only be accessed by quite steep stairs, making accessibility an issue.

One thing I noticed, and have noticed at other stations on this line, is a prediction of the future! On the sign which shows the stations on the line, a "Liverpool Baltic" station is visible. This station is planned to open in 2027, on the site of the disused St. James station. However, for some reason Merseyrail have already made the signs that include it? They put stickers over it, but of course on a lot of these signs the stickers have already been removed. Must be very confusing for people unfamiliar with the network.

Some of the signage at Aigburth was quite old-looking, in particular this Rail Alphabet no smoking sign in the waiting room.

There are waiting rooms on both platforms, which is quite unusual for most stations today, and the station, like Cressington and St Michaels, has a very suburban and almost rural feel to it, despite where it is.

I hope you feel informed about Aigburth.
