Apparently planning permission is in to redevelop central station in a rather large way.--Son of Paddy's Ego 22:24, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Beeching axe (as usual) is blamed for the rationalisation of the station in the 60s. This was actually part of a long-term strategy for the concentration of traffic into a single station in each city where possible. Will change if no-one objects. To be honest, this is a policy that, whilst it may have upset train buffs, was actually welcomed by the public who no longer had to ride taxis across city centres to change trains.

This is a good point. Are there any on-line references to this point - anyone? Was the removal of the Merseyside terminal buildings a coincidence after the Beeching Plan? 79.65.49.116 (talk) 11:29, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Ticket Barriers

The assertion that Liverpool Central is one of Six Stations on the Network with Barriers? At my last count it was at least 9: Southport, Moorfields, Liverpool Lime Street, Liverpool Central, Liverpool James Street, Liverpool South Parkway, Hamilton Square, Conway Park and Chester. I have ammended the page accordingly. 86.10.190.227 (talk) 20:24, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Top Image

The top image is very 'old school' and would be more appropriate is the station was closed? But as an open station would an image of the actual station/current signage not be more appropriate? --Smeowrend (talk) 13:07, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

If a more general image of the station (which is free and up-to-date) can be found that would be ideal, but for now I've reverted to the previous image, as it's preferable to the 'old school' sign. Mato (talk) 01:16, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Improvements completed

The Northern line work has been completed and the station is now fully open. However, the promised new passenger lift never materialised. Should the section not mention this missing improvement? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.26.163.247 (talk) 06:30, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

Passenger Numbers

Unless I'm misreading it, the panel on the right states that passenger numbers at Central were under 1 million per year in 2004, but had risen to nearly 18 million by 2010. Can that possibly be correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.253.152.219 (talk) 13:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC) Oops, wasn't signed in. That comment was mine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phil2415 (talk • contribs) 13:29, 31 January 2013‎
