Horncastle Railway

The Horncastle Railway was a seven mile long single track branch railway line in Lincolnshire, England, that ran from (opened as ''Kirkstead'') on the Lincolnshire Loop Line to ''via'' one intermediate station, .〔Atterbury, P
(2006) Branch Line Britain: A Nostalgic Journey Celebrating a Golden Age, David & Charles, Newton Abbot P144〕
==History==
Originally named the Horncastle and Kirkstead Railway, the company was renamed the Horncastle Railway on 10 July 1854.〔
Authorised in July 1854, the line was the brainchild of three local businessmen who were concerned that the lack of a railway would inhibit the town's development, and who negotiated with the Great Northern Railway that they would construct the line and the GNR would run it.〔
Due to poor weather conditions it was not until the spring of 1855 that work started, but aided by the flat terrain, and lack of major engineering work the line was completed in five months, opening on 11 August 1855. As further work was required to bring the line up to the required standard the line did not open to traffic until 17 August, with full services running from 26 September.
