Spilsby branch
The Spilsby branch was a long Firsby to Spilsby Railway single track branch railway line that ran between Firsby, on the Kings Cross London to Cleethorpes main line, to Spilsby, Lincolnshire, via one intermediate station, Halton Holgate.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Spilsby )〕 The branch line was authorised in 1865 and construction started in 1867. The branch line opened on 1 May 1868 and services started the following day. The line was poorly used from the start. Proposals to extend the line to Horncastle in the 1880s came to nothing. After the Firsby to Spilsby Railway proved unable to run the line at a profit the Great Northern Railway bought the line in 1890.〔
Passing to the London & North Eastern Railway in the 1923 grouping the line closed to passengers on 10 September 1939, as a wartime measure. The line never reopened to passengers and closed completely on 1 December 1958.〔
==Firsby to Spilsby Railway==
A small local railway company built a branch line from Firsby junction to Spilsby, which it opened on 1 May 1868. The branch was just over long and connected Spilsby to the King's Cross, London to Cleethorpes main line. The only other railway station on the branch line was Halton Holegate. Necessary parliamentary permission was obtained by an Act in July 1865 which incorporated The Spilsby & Firsby Railway Company with an authorised capital of £20,000 and loans of £8,333 for the construction of the four-mile-long single-track branch.〔("Railway Station by Clive Ironmonger" ), spilsby.info.
