Aspatria railway station serves the town of Aspatria in Cumbria, England. The railway station is a request stop on part of the scenic Cumbrian Coast Line south west of Carlisle. The station is operated by Northern Rail who provide all passenger train services. ==History== Opened by the Maryport and Carlisle Railway in 1841 (although the line through to Carlisle wasn't completed until 1845), the station was once the junction for the branch line to Mealsgate. Passenger trains on this route began in 1866 but ceased in September 1930 and complete closure followed in 1952.〔(The Bolton Loop )〕 The station became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923, and then passed on to the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. When Sectorisation was introduced in the 1980s, the station was served by Regional Railways until the Privatisation of British Railways. The station signal box was the last surviving example built by the Maryport & Carlisle company prior to its closure and demolition in 1998.〔(Aspatria Signal Box )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aspatria railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
