Northorpe railway station

Northorpe railway station was a railway station in Northorpe, Lincolnshire, England.

[1][2] It opened on 2 April 1849 and closed for passengers on 4 July 1955 and freight on 2 March 1964.

Originally named Northorpe, it became Northorpe (Lincs) at some point after January 1948.

[3] Although the station is now closed, the signal box here remains in use to supervise a level crossing and passing loop on the single track section of the route between Gainsborough Central and Kirton Lindsey.

a view along the railway line from the level crossing. The foreground is dominated by the old-fashioned swing gates, with the 1950s red dot in the middle. The left hand gate is shorter than the right hand one - an arrangement typical of slew crossings like this. Behind the gates on the right is the signal box, still in use to control a passing place, and on the left the former station buildings, half hidden behind hedges.
