Preston Park railway station : ウィキペディア英語版 | Preston Park railway station
Preston Park railway station serves Preston Village and the northern suburban areas of Brighton in East Sussex, England. The station is on the Brighton Main Line and Thameslink north of Brighton railway station, and train services are provided by Southern and Thameslink. There are also two spur lines which run from Preston Park through a tunnel to Hove. ==History== The London Brighton and South Coast Railway opened a new station named ''Preston'', on 1 November 1869 to serve the growing parish of Preston, then north of the Brighton boundary. The station was enlarged and remodelled to its present design in 1879 during the construction of the spur line from the main line to Hove and the West Sussex coast line. The station was then renamed ''Preston Park'' although the nearby Preston Park did not exist until 1883. In 1881 the railway murderer Percy Lefroy Mapleton alighted at the station after having killed Isaac Frederick Gold and dumped his body in Balcombe tunnel.
