The former gate house crossing and station at Grimoldby on the old Louth to Mablethorpe loop line closed in December 1960. Nothing remains of the railway either side of the station or crossing. #LincsConnect @bordersbeeching

The approach to Christ’s Hospital along the excellent “Downs Link” path, the old Guildford line platforms, and the current extant coast platforms. It’s a bit drab, but now 2 trains per hour to Gatwick, ⁦@bordersbeeching⁩

I passed the old Honing Station in Norfolk today at work. It was too nice not to stop for a quick coffee break. It’s easy to imagine what it would’ve been like here before it closed in ‘59 @bordersbeeching

Excellent work. This is my contribution to railway #spookiness from a visit to Germany, and a collection of rusty locos. Situated near Saarburg and Koblenz in Germany, Dampflok Museum Hermeskeil: youtu.be/-n-lCfaphcU 🎃👻☠️

As a kid, we always referred to it as 'The Dead Rail'. :D Situated in Ash Green on the Hampshire/Surrey border, it was said to be haunted by a German PoW who tried to escape but was crushed under a train when he slipped and fell on the line.
