A service from Wigna Wallgate to Manchester Victoria is leaving. The signalbox is the only one on the Atherton line to normally be manned. It is planned to be abolished, together with those at Atherton and Crow Next Junction (Hindley) in 2013.

Disused Railway
The last colliery in the area to close was Mosley Common in 1968 and remarkably little evidence remains in Walkden of this once mighty industry. The routes of some colliery railways, such as this one to the east of Walkden Road, have been transformed into walking and cycle routes and are part of the Salford Loop Line network of cycleways.
