Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox stationHazelwood Railway Station is a disused railway station on the Wirksworth branch of the Midland Railway. It served the village of Hazelwood.
History
The Midland Railway opened Hazelwood and other stations on the branch line to Wirksworth on 1 October 1867. The station was designed by the company architect John Holloway Sanders.[1]
The London, Midland and Scottish Railway temporarily withdrew Wirksworth branch passenger services from 16 June 1947 due to post-war fuel shortages. British Railways made this closure permanent from May 1949 when the line was removed from the summer timetable. BR withdrew goods services from Hazelwood on 2 March 1964, but the branch remained in use for mineral freight until December 1989.
The station building and yard were sold and are now the premises of a timber yard and sawmill. The platform has been removed.[2]
The line through the station is now operated as the heritage Ecclesbourne Valley Railway but there are no plans to reopen the station.
