Wigan North Western is also a Virgin Trains managed six-platform station on a main line.

 

[Ivo]

I was going to PM you about it, but I knew you'd see the message here anyway so I didn't think there was much point.

Anyhow, Wigan North Western is practically next to Wigan Wallgate (even though their entrances are on opposite sides of the road).
