Шаблон:Easingwold Railway Easingwold railway station is a closed timber built railway station that served the market town of Easingwold, in North Yorkshire, England and was on the Easingwold Railway.
History
Although the line was first proposed in 1836[1] it was not until 23 August 1887 that a consortium of local businessmen formed the Easingwold Railway Company and obtained parliamentary approval to build the line.[2] Although the first contractor, Death and Company[3] went bust during construction a second contractor was found and the line opened on 27 July 1891 at a cost of £17,000.[4] The line was privately owned throughout its period of operation and made small profits for most of that time. The line fell victim to road competition in the late 1940s and passenger services ended on 29 November 1948, with freight services ending with the lines' closure 30 December 1957.[5]
The station was demolished and the site has been redeveloped for housing.[1]
