Eccles railway station serves the town of Eccles, Greater Manchester, England. It was opened on 15 September 1830 by the Liverpool and Manchester Railway (L&M). The station is next to the M602 motorway and is away from the Eccles Metrolink station. A short freight-only branch line diverges from the main line here, which descends into the Manchester Ship Canal docks at Salford Quays to serve a Blue Circle cement terminal. The branch now occupies the former slow lines formation, as the L&M was formerly quadruple track from here to Manchester (the Manchester and Wigan Railway route to and shared the tracks of the L&M to a point just west of the station here before diverging towards ). ==Services== Monday to Saturdays there is generally an hourly service from Eccles to Manchester Victoria eastbound and Liverpool Lime Street westbound. Extra trains run at peak periods. Sundays trains towards Manchester go to Manchester Airport via Manchester Piccadilly The station used to be served by North Wales services in the morning peak but this has now ceased. However, with the creation of the MediaCityUK complex in Salford Quays, a much more frequent pattern of services stopping at Eccles has now been reviewed.
