Services
Most Virgin Trains services from London and Birmingham to Carlisle and Glasgow or Edinburgh call here to provide connections with the Windermere branch. There is normally a train at least every two hours to London and every hour to Birmingham New Street and to Carlisle (most of these continuing to either Edinburgh or Glasgow). First TransPennine Express services between Manchester Airport and Windermere/Glasgow/Edinburgh also serve the station, although most Windermere services now start/terminate here rather than running through to Preston and Manchester.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“It seems I impregnated Marge
So I do rather feel, by and large,
Some cash should be tendered
For services rendered,
But I can’t quite decide what to charge.”
—Anonymous.
“We now in the United States have more security guards for the rich than we have police services for the poor districts. If you’re looking for personal security, far better to move to the suburbs than to pay taxes in New York.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
