Great Bridge North railway station
:''Not to be confused with the nearby Great Bridge South railway station.''
Great Bridge North railway station was a station on the South Staffordshire Line in England.
==History==
The station was built in 1850 and served by the South Staffordshire Railway, which later became London, Midland and Scottish Railway (through amalgamation of the London and North Western Railway). The station shared the name ''Great Bridge'' with its Great Western Railway counterpart built in 1866. ''North'' was appended to the name of the station just after nationalization.
Passenger usage declined in the early 1880s, and the line became mainly freight in 1887. It remained open for goods traffic as the district became highly industrialized in the heyday of the Black Country's industrial past. Local industry declined after World War II and road transport became more common. British Rail closed the station to passengers through the Beeching Axe in 1964, but it continued as a freight station for local factories until 1972. Goods trains continued to pass through the site of the station until 1993. By that date no sign of the station or the goods yard remained. It is now derelict and mostly fenced off.
