History
The Wigan Branch Railway (WBR) was authorised on 29 May 1830 to connect the town of Wigan to the Liverpool and Manchester Railway at Шаблон:Rws, and it opened on 3 September 1832. A railway route between Wigan and the town of Preston, in the form of the Wigan & Preston Railway, was authorised by Parliament on 22 April 1831; but before it was built, this company amalgamated with the WBR under an Act of 22 May 1834, to form the North Union Railway (NUR) - the first railway amalgamation to be sanctioned by Act of Parliament.Шаблон:Sfn The line was opened throughout between Wigan and Шаблон:Stnlnk on 31 October 1838,Шаблон:Sfn and Boar's Head station opened the same day;Шаблон:Sfn it was the first station on the route to the north of Wigan.[1]
The Lancashire Union Railway route between Wigan and Шаблон:Stnlnk via Шаблон:Stnlnk was authorised on 25 July 1864; it opened on 1 November 1869 for goods trains, and one month later, on 1 December, passenger services began. The LUR diverged from the NUR to the south of Boar's Head station, where additional platforms were provided for this route. Trains on the section between Wigan and Шаблон:Stnlnk, via Boar's Head, were operated by the London and North Western Railway (LNWR).[2]
The section of the NUR between Parkside and Euxton Junction, which included Boar's Head station, was transferred to the LNWR on 26 July 1889.Шаблон:Sfn
