Hathersage railway station serves the village of Hathersage, in the Derbyshire Peak District, England. It is a stop on the Hope Valley line between Template:Rws and Template:Rws.
History
The station was opened on 25 June 1894 when the Midland Railway opened the line between Template:Rws and Template:Rws (now the Hope Valley Line) for passengers, the line had opened for freight on 6 November 1893.[1] The original buildings were of timber and have disappeared, with the platforms being rebuilt in masonry. The villagers' initial reaction to proposals to build the railway may have been unenthusiastic. They had already had an unfavourable experience of the 'iron horse' in the form of a traction engine in 1882, which, drawing two heavy carts, had made the roads almost impassable, killing a boy and overturning a mail cart. In addition, a private carriage collided with it, killing one of the occupants.[2]
The station had two platforms either side of a double track connected by an underpass, there was a signal box and sidings to both sides of the running lines to the east of the station.[3] The goods yard was able to handle a full range of goods including live stock, it was equipped with a 10-ton crane.[4]
The station was host to two LMS caravans from 1934 to 1935 and one from 1936 to 1939. A camping coach was positioned here by the London Midland Region from 1954 to 1955.[5]
