History

Opening on 8 October 1889, when the Inner Circle line was extended from North Fitzroy to Reservoir,[1] Croxton station was named after the nearby Croxton Park Racecourse and Hotel, which in turn was named after Croxton Racecourse in Leicestershire, England.[3]

In 1922, the station was closed to goods traffic.[1]

On 3 July 1972, the former station building on Platform 1 was damaged by fire, with the waiting room and toilets destroyed.[4] During the 1973/1974 financial year, the present station buildings were provided.[5] Platform extensions also occurred during this time.[5]
