Eventually, we will arrive at that closed station when we are on the line of the Grand Junction Railway, but before that there are two closed stations to be named on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, then two closed stations to be named on the Warrington and Newton Railway.

That station you have named above was the southern terminal station of the Warrington and Newton Railway, but was not on the same line as that of the through line of the following Grand Junction Railway.

There was a closed station on the Warrington and Newton Railway prior to any in the Warrington area......Vulcan Halt

HINT......

There is still one further closed station to name on the Warrington and Newton Railway...It closed in 1840
