Green Lane Station
The station was opened in 1886 as the terminus of the Mersey Railway's line from Liverpool via the Mersey Railway Tunnel. In 1891 the line was extended southwards to Rock Ferry and was subsequently electrified in 1903. It is situated in a deep cutting in the sandstone rock and is a dismal place to wait for a train.
