Egginton Junction railway station is a former railway station in Egginton, Derbyshire. == History == It was opened by the Great Northern Railway (Great Britain) on its Derbyshire Extension in 1878, jointly with the North Staffordshire Railway. It was arranged in angle of the junction, with separate pairs of platforms for each company. It was provided with substantial brick buildings; a two-storey station master's house and the usual single storey offices on the main GNR platform in the vee of the junction, with small timber-built waiting rooms on the two outer subsidiary platforms. Regular passenger traffic finished in 1939, although it saw excursions until 1959, and it closed in 1962.〔Higginson, M., (1989) ''The Friargate Line:Derby and the Great Northern Railway,'' Derby: Golden Pingle Publishing〕 The Egginton Dairy creamery had a dedicated siding for the dispatch of milk trains around the country, until the mid-1960s. 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「Egginton Junction railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
