Morecambe Promenade Station first opened to passengers in 1907 and had four main platforms and a goods siding. Passengers using the facilities came from Leeds and Bradford as well as the West Coast of Scotland arriving overnight by rail to stay in the hotel before taking the boat to the Isle of Man and Barrow from the Stone Jetty.
The line was electrified in 1908 and ran trains every 30 minutes throughout the day. The station was very busy both before and after the first world war and the volume of passengers was such that many trains still had to use the Euston Road Station instead.
