Altrincham | Reserved track | 15th June 1992 | 1 +1 National Rail |
Navigation Road originally served the local electric trains between Manchester Oxford Road and Altrincham and the longer-distance diesel services between Manchester and Chester. On conversion to Metrolink operation the two services were seperated, and the station now has one bidirectional platform for Metrolink trams and one bidirectional platform for the National Rail services to Chester. To the south of the stop both lines expand to double track; just beyond the station to the north National Rail services are diverted to run along a fomer freight line to Stockport, and thence to Manchester Piccadilly, whilst trams continue along the original route via Stretford which expands to double track.
