Didsbury railway station : ウィキペディア英語版 | Didsbury railway station
Didsbury railway station is a former station in Didsbury, in the southern suburbs of Manchester, England, United Kingdom. The station was located on Wilmslow Road, just north of the junction with Barlow Moor Road and opposite Didsbury Library. Nothing now remains of the old station buildings, which have been demolished, but the surviving white Portland stone clock tower is a local landmark. The old trackbed remains and there are plans to re-open the line for light rail passenger services as part of the Manchester Metrolink network. ==History==
Didsbury Station opened in 1880 when the Midland Railway opened the new Manchester South District line which ran from Manchester Central Station. The Manchester South District line, and consequently Didsbury station, closed in 1967 under the Beeching Axe. For a number of years the station building was used as a hardware store, but after this closed the building fell derelict and was demolished in the early 1980s.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/d/didsbury/index13.shtml )〕 The site today is occupied by a row of pubs and cafés. All that remains of the old station is the clock tower and drinking fountain which were erected to the memory of a local doctor and campaigner for the poor, Dr. J. Milson Rhodes.
