Orrell railway station serves the Orrell area of the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan, Greater Manchester. It is a small two-platform commuter hub on the Wigan to Kirkby branch line. Unlike the preceding station Pemberton it is not a "request stop".

From Orrell, trains provide services to Manchester, passing through Wigan's Wallgate station. On the opposite platform trains serviced by Northern Rail, use the Tontine Tunnel onwards towards the Kirkby terminus of this branch line.

The majority of passengers at Orrell use services to Wigan town centre and Manchester. The services to Manchester are significantly busier than those to Kirkby.

There is an hourly service Monday to Saturday daytimes eastbound direct to Manchester Victoria and beyond (Rochdale) and westbound to Kirkby for connection to Liverpool central.

There is no service evenings and Sundays.
