Wavertree Technology Park railway station is in the suburbs of Liverpool, at the western end of Olive Mount cutting, on the original Liverpool-Manchester line.

Since 5 March 2015, trains through the station have used overhead wire electric traction,[2] as part of the electrification of George Stephenson's original Liverpool and Manchester Railway and the branch line to Wigan.

The station has a ticket office (located on the bridge above the platforms) that is staffed throughout the hours of service, seven days per week (05:15 - midnight Monday to Saturday, 08:00 - 23:45 Sunday).

Fast services to the Airport and regular locals to Victoria both ended at the May 2018 timetable change.

This timetable change was also when TransPennine Express introduced Liverpool-North East services, which run via Manchester Victoria.
