Garston Dock railway station served Garston, Liverpool, Merseyside, England. It was situated on the east side of Dock Road.
History
The station opened on 1 July 1852 as the western terminal of the St Helens and Runcorn Gap Railway and closed 16 June 1947.[2] Soon after the station was opened the Garston and Liverpool Railway was opened bringing the St Helens Railway Liverpool terminus to Brunswick. However the Cheshire Lines Committee took over this line to connect in Liverpool to Manchester Line to central Liverpool. So the LNWR which by this time had acquired the St Helens Railway built a chord allowing its trains to access its Liverpool Lime Street railway station.
