Goostrey railway station

Goostrey railway station serves the village of Goostrey in Cheshire, England. The station is located 10½ miles (16 km) north-east of Crewe, on the Crewe to Manchester Line.

The line was built by the Manchester and Birmingham Railway Company and was completed on 10 August 1842. Goostrey station was added by the London & North Western Railway, opening on 1 September 1891.

A photo of a keystone on the platform, at the foot of a mast, showed the MBR coat of arms and an inscription, MBR 1844 G. W. Buck Engineer. In 1958, it had been removed from the Manchester side of the road bridge at the station, when it was rebuilt to provide clearance for the electric wires; the keystone on the Crewe side showed W. Baker as engineer, but was broken when it was removed.

There is an hourly service between Manchester Piccadilly, Stockport and Crewe Monday - Saturday.

On Sundays there is a service of 1 train every two hours between Manchester Piccadilly, Stockport and Crewe.

All services are operated by Northern Trains.
