Northenden railway station was located in the southern part of Manchester, England. It was built by the Stockport, Timperley and Altrincham Junction Railway (ST&AJ) and was opened for both passenger and goods traffic on 1 February 1866. From 15 August 1867 the ST&AJ became part of the Cheshire Lines Committee (CLC). From 1 January 1923 the CLC was jointly owned by the London and North Eastern Railway (two-thirds ownership) and the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (one-third ownership). However, the CLC continued to retain its separate identity and management. Some official railway timetables described the station as Northenden for Wythenshawe because the station lay between and served the two districts. It was situated between the road overbridges at Sharston Road and Longley Lane.〔 ==Station facilities== The main brick-built station building was constructed to a typical Cheshire Lines Committee design with steeply sloping roofs and decorative wooden barge boarding. It contained the booking office, passenger waiting room, parcels office, toilet facilities and the station master's accommodation. Until the 1890s a telegraph office, available to send public messages, was located in the station building. The main building was located on the north side (nearest to Northenden village) of the twin railway tracks and served the passenger trains travelling eastwards from Liverpool and Warrington towards Stockport. On the south side of the line was a smaller brick-built waiting room for passengers, which was reached from the station's eastern end by a boarded railway crossing for both passengers and staff to use with care. This platform served passenger trains from Stockport travelling westwards towards Warrington and Liverpool. 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「Northenden railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
