The station was only ever served by trains from Oldham to Delph via Greenfield. The station closed on 2 May 1955[1] when this service, known locally as the Delph Donkey, was withdrawn. The location of Moorgate Halt is now marked by a foot crossing over the railway at Uppermill, although no trace of the station remains. Nearby can be seen the foundations of Delph Junction signal box, where trains used to receive the token giving them authorisation to enter the single line section to Delph. {{Delph Donkey RDT}}{{Historical Rail Start}}{{rail line one to two |previous=GreenfieldLine and station open |next1=Dobcross Line and station closed |next2=Saddleworth Line open, station closed |route1=London and North Western Railway Delph Donkey |route2=London and North Western Railway Huddersfield Line |col={{LNWR colour}} }}{{s-end}} References1. ^1 {{cite book |last=Butt |first=R.V.J. |title=The Directory of Railway Stations |year=1995 |publisher=Patrick Stephens Ltd |location=Yeovil |isbn=1-85260-508-1 |id=R508 |page=162 |ref=harv }}
