Spring Vale railway station was a railway station that served the community of Spring Vale, in Darwen, Lancashire, England. It was opened by the Bolton, Blackburn, Clitheroe and West Yorkshire Railway on 3 August 1847, and was originally named Sough.[1] At first, it was the southern terminus of the line from Blackburn (Bolton Road); the line south of Sough to Bolton opened on 12 June 1848 and was just located south of the road bridge at the top off Cranberry Lane[2] The station was moved 150 yards north and was renamed Spring Vale and Sough in November 1870,[3] and Spring Vale on 1 March 1877. It was closed on 5 August 1958,[4][5] two days after nearby Lower Darwen.[6] It achieved noteworthiness when, on the night of 25 September 1931, Mahatma Gandhi alighted from a train there to spend the night with a local family whilst visiting England to see the effects of his cotton making campaign on the British textile industry.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
