Twenty railway station served the village of Twenty in Lincolnshire, England. It was on the route of the Spalding and Bourne Railway (opened 1866),[1] later part of the Midland and Eastern Railway and then part of the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway main line between the Midlands and the Norfolk Coast.[2][3]
History
The station opened with the line on 1 August 1866, closed temporarily between 9 October 1880 and 1 February 1881, and closed permanently on 2 March 1959,[4] although the line remained open for goods until 1964.[5] The three intermediate stations between Spalding and Bourne had unusual names, because there were few nearby settlements; in the area there was a series of drainage ditches, the twentieth of which ran close to the station, hence the name "Twenty".Script error: No such module "Unsubst".[6]
