Services
The service has recently improved to more or less hourly throughout the week (including Sundays - see Northern Rail timetable 12 for details), although it remains a request stop. The success of this enhancement all depends on the fate of the local Strawbury Duck public house. The station was used heavily by pub drinkers before being closed down, but has been reopened under new management as of June 2010.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“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)
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a woman’s services are due.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A good marriage ... is a sweet association in life: full of constancy, trust, and an infinite number of useful and solid services and mutual obligations.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
