Castle Bytham railway station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Castle Bytham railway station was a station in Castle Bytham on the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway. It closed when the line was cut back in the Beeching Axe.[1] [2] This station was rather unusual, being a single platform in a cutting through the village. The station was not originally planned by the railway, but was added after considerable local lobbying. It remained open, as did the goods yard on the other side of the road, until the line closed in 1959. Outside the village the line of the railway now forms a road crossing under the A1.

There was a Little Bytham railway station on the Great Eastern Railway.
