Moses Gate railway station serves the Moses Gate suburb of Farnworth in the Metropolitan Borough of Bolton, Greater Manchester, England. It lies on the Manchester-Preston Line, though only local services run by Northern Rail call here. Until the late 1970s, Moses Gate was one of the more important stations on the line between Manchester Victoria and Bolton, with Sunday service and high patronage.〔British Rail Timetable 1973, 1974 and 1978)〕 But due to clearance of much housing in the area, use has declined (see Strategic Rail Authority figures) although it retains an hourly service (see National Rail Timetable). Moses Gate is the nearest railway station to the village of Little Lever. The station was staffed until the early 1990s, until the arson of the station building (see photo to right). ==Service== There is an hourly weekday & Saturday daytime service (with a few extra peak period calls) until 18:47 northbound to Wigan Wallgate and southwards to Manchester Victoria until 18:46. There is only one evening service at 23:11 (Monday-Friday) and 23:16 (Saturday) which goes to Bolton & Wigan Wallgate. However, from early May 2015 until December, services are suspended and replaced by buses due to the ongoing modernisation work here (where the platforms are being rebuilt) and on the route further south at Farnworth Tunnel. There is no evening service to Manchester and no Sunday service. 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「Moses Gate railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
