Title

Normanton Station - DNT00126

Description

Normanton Station was opened on 30th June 1840 by the North Midland Railway, later a constituent part of the Midland Railway, on its Leeds-Derby line and on the same day the York & North Midland Railway opened between Normanton and York and this was followed on the 5th October with the opening of the section of the M&LR between Hebden Bridge and Normanton. It became a busy and important passenger interchange. However it lost much of its traffic in the 1950s and 60s and today it is unstaffed, the station buildings are all gone and the only service is the Hallam Line between Leeds, Castleford, Wakefield (Kirkgate), Barnsley and Sheffield.
