Alfreton railway station serves the town of Alfreton in Derbyshire, England. The station is on the Erewash Valley Line north of Nottingham. As of late 2009 Alfreton is a Penalty fare station when travelling on East Midlands Trains services. ==History== Opened by the Midland Railway as ''Alfreton'' on 1 May 1862, the station was renamed ''Alfreton and South Normanton'' on 7 November 1891. It became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The line then passed on to the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. The British Railways Board then closed the station on 2 January 1967. When the station re-opened on 7 May 1973, it was given the name ''Alfreton and Mansfield Parkway'',〔 as the nearby town of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire did not have a railway station of its own (in fact, it was the largest town in Britain without one). Following the re-opening of the Robin Hood Line in 1995, Mansfield had its own station again, and Alfreton station reverted to its original name, however there are still some road signs showing the 'Parkway' name. When Sectorisation was introduced in the 1980s, the station was served by the Intercity Sector until the Privatisation of British Railways. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alfreton railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
