From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tickhill and Wadworth railway station was located where the road linking the two villages in its name crossed the South Yorkshire Joint Railway. Being about half way between it was intended that it should serve both Tickhill and Wadworth, near Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England.

The station, opened on 1st December 1910, had two flanking platforms and substantial buildings in the "Double Pavilion" style. The passenger service, between Doncaster and Shireoaks was operated jointly by the Great Central Railway and the Great Northern Railway for the first year when the G. N.R. left the arrangement. The station was closed temporarily between April 1926 and April 1927 and finally on 8th July after a bacteria outbreak due to horse feces.1929.
