North Filton Platform was a railway station which served the northern part of Filton, Gloucestershire, England. It was on the railway line between Filton and Avonmouth, and was situated on the western side of Gloucester Road (the present A38). ==History== The railway line between Stoke Gifford Junction and Holesmouth Junction (Avonmouth), now known as the Henbury Loop Line, was opened by the Great Western Railway (GWR) on 9 May 1910, together with the Filton West Loop (Filton Junction to Filton West Junction). Among the stations on that line which opened the same day was one originally known as ''Filton Halt''. It closed less than five years later, on 22 March 1915. It was reopened either on 12 July 1926 or on 20 September 1926, and was now known as ''North Filton Platform''.〔 Regular passenger services ceased from 23 November 1964, but workman trains continued until 12 May 1986.〔 Private and Untimetabled Railway stations by G.Croughton and others〕 Friends of Suburban Bristol Railways (FOSBR) and other local rail campaign groups support the reopening of the line to passengers, as well as the stations at and . FOSBR suggest this would help services along the Severn Beach Line, allowing a -- service, and also provide services to the north of Bristol generally, the Cribbs Causeway shopping centre,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Our Case )〕 and the redevelopment at Filton Aerodrome. FOSBR say that local councils have committed to a feasibility study into reopening the line.〔 In December 2011 a South Gloucestershire Council planning committee recommended that the station, along with Henbury station, be re-opened for passenger services. 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「North Filton Platform railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
