The station served Alexandra Dock until the last train on 31 May 1948.

[3] Opened by the London and North Western Railway, it became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923, passing on to the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948.

As was common practice in the 1950s the station was left intact, sufficiently so for enthusiast's specials to call in 1959 and 1964.

[6] The buildings and terminating tracks have been obliterated by modern development, but the track past the station site still serves Seaforth Dock; there is a loop a short distance northeast of the station site.
