Husthwaite Gate railway station is a disused railway station in North Yorkshire, England. It served the nearby village of Husthwaite. When the Thirsk and Malton line was completed in 1853, there was originally no station near Husthwaite. However, a single platform on the north side of the single line was provided by 1856, east of the crossing with the minor road from Husthwaite to Carlton Husthwaite, known as Elphin Bridge Lane. A stationmaster's house, incorporating the ticket office, was built on the opposite side of the crossing. A goods siding in front of the stationmaster's house was built at the cost of Sir George Wombwell, a local landowner. In 1872, it was taken into public use and Wombwell's outlay was refunded. The station was closed to passengers (except for excursions) in 1953. It remained as a goods station until 1963, when it became an unmanned crossing. The line was closed in 1964, and the track pulled up in the following year. A brick course of the platform remains. The stationmaster's house is a private dwelling. A small camping site is also run from the location http://www.husthwaitegate.co.uk . ==External links== * ("Husthwaite Gate" ) ''Subterranea Britannica'' (work by Nick Catford)] http://www.husthwaitegate.co.uk 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「Husthwaite Gate railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
