Harby and Stathern railway station

Harby & Stathern railway station is a former station on the Great Northern and London and North Western Joint Railway that served the villages of Harby and Stathern, in Leicestershire, England.

Harby & Stathern was chosen due to local opposition in Melton Mowbray.

The station was not very convenient for local passengers as the approach road was about five hundred yards long.

The goods yard was very large and the original warehouse still stands.

The station closed to regular traffic in 1953, but summer specials lasted until 1962.
