Glazebrook East Junction to Skelton Junction Line was a railway line from Glazebrook to Skelton Junction in Greater Manchester. == History == Glazebrook East Junction to Skelton Junction Line was part of Cheshire Lines Committee (CLC) as a branch line of their main Liverpool to Manchester Lines. The line carried on through Skelton Junction terminating at Stockport Tiviot Dale It opened in 1873 serving the towns of Cadishead, Partington and West Timperley before joining the Manchester, South Junction and Altrincham Railway (MSJ&AR) at Skelton Junction which was also part of the CLC at this time. In the 1890s the line was deviated due to the building of the Manchester Ship Canal. It was raised on an embankment around a mile in length from Glazebrook East Junction to be high enough to clear the Ship Canal and Cadishead Viaduct was built in 1892 to span the canal. The line saw little change in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and it remained part of the CLC in the 1923 Grouping. On nationalistion it became part of the London Midland Region of British Railways in 1948 at the final demise of the CLC. 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「Glazebrook East Junction to Skelton Junction Line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
