This was to serve the colliery near Neston and the residential area and bathing resort of Parkgate.

A factor which affected Neston South during its existence was being sited some distance away from the town centre.

This was due to a dispute between the railway company and the local landowner the Earl of Shrewsbury.

The track continued to be used for freight transportation and driver training for another six years, closing on 7 May 1962.
