Great Northern and Great Eastern Joint Railway : ウィキペディア英語版 | Great Northern and Great Eastern Joint Railway
The Great Northern and Great Eastern Joint Railway (GNGEJR) was a joint railway owned by the Great Northern Railway and its rival, the Great Eastern Railway. It was established in 1879, and the joint company built a line between Spalding and Lincoln to complete a new, primarily freight, route between Cambridge and Doncaster, a distance of about 123 miles. The main purpose was to move Yorkshire coal into East Anglia, a highly profitable enterprise. The route survives except for the section between March, Cambridgeshire and Spalding, Lincolnshire and the Lincoln by-pass line both of which were closed in the 1980s . The section between Peterborough and Spalding is now regarded as part of the joint line although this is not strictly (historically) accurate. ==Opening dates== The line was amalgamation of several existing lines, as well as the construction of some directly as part of the process of opening the joint line, which is described below. The table below records the opening dates in geographic order from south to north.
