Byers Green railway station was one of three railway stations that served in the village of Byers Green in County Durham, Northeast England. ==History== The Clarence Railway opened its Byers Green branch from in 1837. Passengers were first carried from 1845, initially starting at Tod Hills (or Todhills) to the west, but services were cut back to Byers Green from 1848. The service was again extended to Tod Hills in 1865, before the passenger service was withdrawn on the branch in 1867. The service was restored in 1878, when a new Byers Green station opened at the site of the original Tod Hills station. In 1885 a new line opened from Burnhouse Junction, to the east of Byers Green station, to and a new station opened on this line. This station closed to passengers on 4 December 1939 and goods on 2 June 1958. The Clarence Railway was leased to the Stockton and Hartlepool Railway for 21 years from 1844, and a permanent lease was negotiated from 1851. The Clarence Railway became part of the West Hartlepool Harbour and Railway in 1853, which became part of the larger North Eastern Railway in 1865. The trackbed of the railway has been converted into the Auckland Way, a path for walkers and cyclists. 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「Byers Green railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
