Notes: Nelson Dock was a typical Liverpool Overhead Railway station being located on the elevated line 16 feet above street level on the iron structure that carried the line above Liverpool's busy Dock Road and directly above the Dock Boards railway which ran throughout the length of the dock system linking the various goods facilities. It opened in 1896 as a replacement for Sandon. When opened it was served by trains between Dingle and Seaforth Sands stations. In 1905 an extension was made to Seaforth & Litherland on the L&Y Liverpool to Southport line. The station was connected to the street by stairs.

The line closed along with all of its stations on 30.12.1956 due to the structure corroding.

Nelson Dock Station was demolished with the rest of the Overhead Railway towards the end of 1957.
