The Olive Mount chord in Liverpool, England, is a 300-metre stretch of railway track between Olive Mount Junction, in Olive Mount cutting, and Edge Lane Junction that provides access to the Canada Dock Branch (more usually known today as the Bootle Branch). == History == The Olive Mount Chord was built as part of the L&NWR's Canada Dock branch railway, which opened in 1866. It was constructed to ease transition between the branch and the main L&NWR line into and out of the Liverpool area. It was taken out of use following a fire in the signal box at Edge Lane Junction on 21 January 1987 and subsequently lifted as the declining levels of dock traffic meant the cost of repairing the box or altering the signalling to allow remote operation from Edge Hill PSB was not justified. The delays resulting from its removal were a limiting factor in access to the Port of Liverpool.
