POLICE were last night still trying to piece together how teenager Georgia Varley died at a Merseyside railway station.

Officers again appealed for information as investigations into the 16-year-old’s tragic death continued.

Yesterday it was still not known exactly what happened on Saturday night, when Georgia died at Liverpool’s James Street station.

One theory is that she may have accidentally stepped off the train at the wrong stop and tried to get back on before losing her footing and falling from the platform.

It is believed some of Georgia’s friends – including boyfriend Pierce Sweeney – were on board the Wirral Line train.

Detective Chief Inspector Simon Taylor, of British Transport Police, said: “We are determined to work out exactly what happened to Georgia and I am calling on rail passengers in Liverpool to help with this.

“Whatever information you have, no matter how insignificant it may seem, it could prove valuable in helping us piece together Georgia’s final few minutes.

“Georgia has left behind a distraught family and we want to be able to tell them exactly what happened and help them come to terms with the tragedy.”

Staff at Birkenhead Sixth Form College, where Georgia was a student, were yesterday planning counselling for friends and those who witnessed her death.

Karen Wiggins, a senior member of staff, said: “We do not know what we are going to find when the students come back.

“It may be we have students who did not know Georgia but experienced something similar in their past and we need to know how to deal with that.

“We are all deeply saddened. Georgia joined us in September and had a bright future ahead of her.

“She had a very ready smile and was a beautiful-looking girl who was very popular among the students.”
