Thurgoland railway station
Disused railway station in South Yorkshire, England / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thurgoland railway station was a small railway station built by the Sheffield, Ashton-Under-Lyne and Manchester Railway to serve the village of Thurgoland, South Yorkshire, England and opened on 5 December 1845. Due to cost-cutting measures involving staff and infrastructure the station was closed, along with Dukinfield Dog Lane, Hazelhead and Oxspring on 1 November 1847,[1] making this one of the shortest-lived stations anywhere, with a life span of just one year and 11 months.
