Breadsall railway station was a former railway station in Breadsall, Derbyshire. It was opened by the Great Northern Railway (Great Britain) on its Derbyshire Extension in 1878. == History == From West Hallam and the summit at Morley Tunnel, the line descended to Breadsall, on a gradient of 1 in 100. The station itself was very close to the village and was provided with substantial brick buildings, including a two-storey station master's house and the usual single storey offices on the platforms. The passenger service finished in 1953 and services on the line ended completely in 1964 (passenger services) and 1968 (goods). From Breadsall, the line then crossed the Derwent valley by a long succession of embankments and viaducts. It then entered the town through a deep cutting before reaching Derby Friargate. Near Derby Racecourse was a siding with facilities for handling horses and there were plans for a station but this never came to fruition.〔Higginson, M., (1989) ''The Friargate Line:Derby and the Great Northern Railway,'' Derby: Golden Pingle Publishing〕 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「Breadsall railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
