Freight through Buckley station, hour by hour
Freight is booked through or alongside Buckley station on 108 paths in the week beginning 12 October 2026: 17 paths on the Wednesday, 10 paths on the Saturday and 4 paths on the Sunday. 33 of them run whatever the traffic; the rest are held in the timetable and used only when there is something to move. The busiest hour is 08:00 to 09:00 on the Monday, with 4 paths booked.
The grid counts the goods trains booked to pass in each hour of the week beginning 12 October 2026: the darker the hour, the more paths, and a dot marks an hour with at least one path that runs regardless. Engineering trains, empty stock and light engines are not counted. Across Britain only about a fifth of booked freight paths run on a given day, so a booked path is a possibility rather than a promise; the freight statistics page explains how that is measured.
