Smardale railway station
Smardale railway station was a minor station on the South Durham & Lancashire Union Railway between Tebay and Kirkby Stephen East. It served the villages of Smardale and Waitby. The station opened to passenger traffic on 8 August 1861, and closed on 1 December 1952.
==Description and history==
At the time of its opening in 1861 the only habitation in the village of Smardale was Smardale Hall. The station consisted of a single platform on the south side of the line, and stone built station buildings as well as two goods sidings.〔(Smardale ) ''www.disused-stations.org.uk''〕
A signal box was added in the 1890s. During the First World War from 20 September 1915 the station closed being used as a halt but unstaffed. It reopened in 1919. The signal box was removed in the 1920s, and the station closed in 1952.〔〔(Stainmore Railway Company - Photographs : Smardale Halt ) ''www.cumbria-railways.co.uk''〕
In 2002 the preservation society Stainmore Railway Company (at Kirkby Stephen East) recovered two wagons which had derailed near the station and been left undisturbed for half a century.〔(Rail crash remains recovered after 49 years ) 20 March 2004 , Cumberland and Westmorland Herald , ''www.cwherald.com''〕 As of 2013 the Stationmasters house is now since part of a private residence.〔
