Talk:Ollerton railway station

1991
There's a suggestion in the article that the station reopened in 1991 and closed two days later. More detail, please. 94.197.121.80 (talk) 15:59, 17 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Well, it is cited, albeit to an unreliable source. It was High Marnam power station having an open weekend. Shuttle brake van trips were run to and from Ollerton. Personally I don't consider that to be "reopening" a station, as it was just a joining and alighting point for people on those special trains, but not for the general public.


 * A more reliable authority says that regular advertised summer Saturday excursions continued until 5 September 1964. Later occasional excursions used the station: for example on 28 April 1956 to Sheffield for football; Whit Monday 3 June 1963; one to Skegness 12 August 1972.
