Witham–Maldon branch line
The Witham–Maldon branch line is a closed railway line between Witham and Maldon in Essex, England. The line was long and operated from 1848 until final closure in 1966, though passenger services had ceased two years earlier.
==Infrastructure==
Most of the railway was built economically using timber instead of bricks, however the station at Maldon was built far grander than necessary as one of the railway's political financiers was seeking local re-election to the Maldon parliamentary constituency and extended the employment of the railway workers to improve his chances.
There were six timber trestle viaducts on the line; the one near the former Wickham Bishops station () is the only remaining and is a scheduled monument.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wickham Bishops - timber trestle bridge )〕
