- Salcey_Forest_railway_station abstract "Salcey Forest railway station was a short-lived railway station on the Stratford-upon-Avon, Towcester and Midland Junction Railway which opened on 1 December 1892 near the Northamptonshire forest of the same name. The station was not situated near any settlement and only saw passenger services for four months, it being most likely an error of judgement by the railway company which had provided substantial station facilities in expectation of traffic which never came. On the first service, it was reported that one person alighted at Salcey Forest, but no-one joined, whilst at Stoke Bruern, seven joined and one alighted. The service attracted no more than twenty passengers a week and the SMJ incurred a loss of £40. Salcey Forest station eventually closed on 31 March 1893 and has an arguable claim, along with Stoke Bruerne, of having had the shortest passenger service ever provided at any British railway station. Goods facilities were withdrawn in 1952. The line was "temporarily" closed to through traffic, banana trains from Avonmouth Docks to Somerstown Goods, in May 1958 to enable a bridge to be constructed over the line to carry the new M1 motorway. The line never reopened for traffic though was used for the storage of old condemned coaches awaiting cutting up; the track was eventually taken up from Towcester to Ravenstone Wood Jct. in the late summer of 1964. The station had a short approach road from the original (pre-turnpike) road that ran direct from the Northampton to Newport Pagnell road through the village of Piddington there known as the Old London Road. When the new turnpike road was built taking in Horton and Hackleton, by Act of 1709, the original (Old London) road became reduced to its present status, that of a bridleway. The short approach to the station cannot now be seen even from the satellite view but remains marked on older Ordnance Survey maps. It certainly remains a mystery why, if a station had to be built at all, it was not sited either at Forest Road, Piddington or adjacent to the main Northampton to Newport Pagnell road (B526). The B526 bridge over the trackbed is still in use.".
