Leicester West Bridge railway station : ウィキペディア英語版 | Leicester West Bridge railway station
Leicester West Bridge is a former railway station in Leicester, Leicestershire. It was the terminus of the Leicester and Swannington Railway until 1928. Being one of the earliest public railways, and intended for the transport of coal, the idea of carrying passengers had not occurred to the line's promoters. Thus facilities for buying tickets were provided at local inns or from the keepers of various road crossings. Such was the case at West Bridge until 1893 when, belatedly, the Midland Railway built a new passenger station. The line remained open until 1979, when the track was removed and the station buildings demolished. The station is thought to be the third oldest station in the world. Its site is now a public park, the Rally. ==References==
