Caythorpe railway station

The line was built by the Great Northern Railway.

The site now houses a recycling centre for household waste.

On 1 January 1923 the company lost its identity as a constituent of the newly formed London and North Eastern Railway.

The line, opened in 1867, ran through land at Caythorpe owned by GNR chairman George Hussey Packe.

Packe's land was the first in south-west Lincolnshire to be mined for iron ore. Opencast workings were either side of the line and used narrow gauge links to rail heads on the line.
