Liverpool Lime Street Station to Manchester Victoria
Hotel Review: Holiday Inn Liverpool City Centre, Merseyside, England - May 2019
Hotel Review: Holiday Inn Liverpool City Centre, Merseyside, England - May 2019.
I've just added a new film to my Hotel Reviews: England playlist here of a review of the Holiday Inn hotel in Liverpool city centre, here: .
I stayed at this Holiday Inn in May 2019 for two nights, booked with booking.com on a bed and breakfast basis, which cost £140, a very good price for a hotel of this quality in Liverpool city centre. The hotel is less than a 5 minute walk from Liverpool Lime Street, which is Liverpool's main railway station.
The reception is located next to a Sainsbury's in a St. John's Shopping Centre. Check-in was quick and easy with friendly, chatty reception staff. My room (308) was very decent, with air-conditioning, a very good king-sized bed, desk area, flat screen TV, comfy chair, double wardrobe, mirror and tea and coffee making facilities. Unfortunately the bed had no plug sockets next to it, which was a shame.
The bathroom felt a little bit 1980s, but it was clean and well maintained, with a shower bath instead of a shower cubicle.
Breakfast was excellent (English and continental buffet) in a large and airy restaurant with great views towards Lime Street station.
All in all this was a very good experience, and a great hotel, I would certainly consider staying here again in future.
This film features exterior views of the hotel, reception, lobby, lift / elevator, a detailed room review of 308, restaurant and breakfast buffet.

A Walk Around Liverpool Lime Street Railway Station, Liverpool, England
Liverpool Lime Street is a terminus railway station, and the main station serving the city centre of Liverpool. A large building resembling a Château fronts the station. A branch of the West Coast Main Line from London Euston terminates at the station, as well as TransPennine Express trains and other train services. The underground Lime Street Wirral Line station of the Merseyrail network is accessed via the main terminus. Lime Street is the largest and oldest railway station in Liverpool, and is one of 19 stations managed by Network Rail.
The original terminus of the 1830 Liverpool and Manchester Railway (L&MR) was located at Crown Street, in Edge Hill, to the east and outside the city centre. Construction of a purpose-built station at Lime Street in the city centre began in October 1833, the land being purchased from Liverpool Corporation for £9,000. A tunnel was constructed between Edge Hill and the new station prior to station construction in 1832. The architecture was designed by Cunningham and Holme,[2] and the station was opened to the public in August 1836, although construction was not completed until the following year. Because of the steep incline between Lime Street and Edge Hill, trains were stopped at Edge Hill, their locomotives removed, and the passenger carriages taken down by gravity, with the descent controlled by brakemen. The return journey was achieved by using a stationary engine to haul the carriages up to Edge Hill by rope.
Within six years, the rapid growth of the railways entailed expansion of the original station. A plan was made to erect an iron roof similar to that found at Euston station in London, ridge roofs supported by iron columns; however, Richard Turner and William Fairburn submitted a design for a single curved roof, which won the approval of the station committee. The work cost £15,000, and was completed in 1849.
In 1867 further expansion was needed and included the present northern arched train shed. With a span of 200 feet (61 m), it was the largest in the world at the time. It was also the first train shed in which iron was used throughout. A second parallel southern train shed was completed in 1879 being notable in being of dry construction with each bay taking only three days to construct.
The station is fronted by a large building in the style of a French château, the former North Western Hotel. Designed by Alfred Waterhouse, the building was built in 1879 at the same time as the second train shed and is now accommodation for students of Liverpool John Moores University.
A new ticket hall and office complex, which masked the views of the arches, were constructed in 2001. They were demolished as part of a comprehensive refurbishment completed in 2010.
In 1845 the L&MR was absorbed by its principal business partner, the Grand Junction Railway (GJR); the following year the GJR became part of the London and North Western Railway. At 'the grouping' in 1923, the station passed to the ownership of the London, Midland and Scottish (LMS) railway, and in 1948, the London Midland Region of British Railways. The station was one of the first to send mail by train.
Lime Street station was part of the first stage of electrification of the West Coast Main Line in 1959. In 1966, the station saw the launch of the first InterCity service.
With the creation of Merseyrail urban rail network in the 1970s, four terminus stations were demolished in Liverpool and Birkenhead centres, leaving only Lime Street terminus as a central point to serve the whole region for medium- and long-haul routes. The Merseyrail network gave ease of access for the whole Merseyside region to the one remaining large terminus.
Lime Street was voted Station of the Year 2010 at the National Rail Awards

This is my third Virgin West Coast Trip Report and probably the most comprehensive. I really enjoyed this brief journey, of just over two hours. We travel from London Euston station and head for Liverpool Lime Street. City centre to city centre, it’s 2h12 minutes of pleasant scenery and tasty food, with breakfast served to my seat.
Virgin provide good value for money on this route. My ticket cost around £30 and included lounge access, free WiFi, onboard entertainment, and a cooked breakfast and beverages. Not bad. Of course, you have to book ahead to get the best deals!
Next UK train trip will be uploaded in 4 weeks’ time - it’ll be a belter, the GWR Pullman. Until then, I’ve got three air trips to publish.
The signalling maps featured can be found here:
Enjoy the report.
