Liverpool Lime Street Railway Station

Liverpool is a fabulous location to visit with the major new developments such as the Liverpool Echo Arena, Liverpool One and the Cruise Liner landing point at the Pier Head.

Trains from the Mid Cheshire stations operated by London North Western Railway arrive at Lime Street station.  Tickets are usually sold to ‘Liverpool Stations’ and with one of these, you can continue on the underground MerseyRail electric trains onwards from Lime Street to James Street station for the Pier Head.  Or on a sunny day, it is a pleasant 20 minute brisk walk through the spacious city centre from Lime Street to Pier Head passing many well-known historic buildings on the way.

Or if history is your thing, then Liverpool is blessed with a thriving maritime history as well as all of the cultural aspects of the city.

The architecture is world-class, with more listed buildings than any city outside London. Whether you are coming to Liverpool for arts and culture, sport, or family outings, you will be spoilt for choice in this great city.
