Ince railway station serves the Ince area of Metropolitan Borough of Wigan, Greater Manchester. The station is on the Manchester-Southport Line 17¼ miles (28 km) north west of Manchester Victoria. Until November 1964 Ince was also served by a station at Lower Ince on the line from Wigan Central to Glazebrook (to the now closed Manchester Central). Ince suffered in the 1960s and 1970s from much house clearance and landscaping. This has resulted in low passenger usage for the station which served an area which was (until the 1960s) a bustling independent town. Ince (unlike Daisy Hill and Hindley, and other stations on the line) is not a commuter dormitory suburb and now the station is deserted even at peak times. Usage figures increased by around 10% in 2006/07 and recently by greater amounts (around 25% in 2007/08, and 29% in 2010-11) albeit from a relatively low base. There are three seats, with a new shelter that contains benches. There are no other facilities at the station. ==Services== The station is served by an hourly service in each direction to Manchester Victoria via and to Kirkby (Wigan during the evenings) respectively. A small number of morning and evening weekday peak services to and from Manchester Airport and Manchester Piccadilly via Bolton also call. There is an hourly daytime Sunday service (via Atherton) in the current (2013)〔(Northern Rail Timetable 14 Manchester to Southport 19 May - 6 October 2013 ) Retrieved 2013-08-28〕 timetable. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ince (Wigan) railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
