History
Passenger services started on 15 July 1850.[1] It is located on the line first opened by the Ambergate, Nottingham, Boston and Eastern Junction Railway and taken over by the Great Northern Railway.[2] The buildings were designed by Thomas Chambers Hine.[3]
In 1851 the first station master, Thomas Hand, absconded with five days' takings from passengers travelling to the Nottingham Fair.[4]
Between 1879 and 1953, Bingham was also served by Bingham Road station on the Great Northern and London and North Western Joint Railway. It was used for London and North Western Railway services between Nottingham London Road and stations to Northampton.
From 7 January 1963 passenger steam trains between Grantham, Bottesford, Elton and Orston, Aslockton, Bingham, Radcliffe-on-Trent, Netherfield and Colwick, Nottingham London-road (High Level) and Nottingham (Victoria) were replaced by diesel multiple-unit trains.[5]
