Hazelwood Railway Station is a disused railway station on the Wirksworth branch of the Midland Railway. It served the village of Hazelwood. The line has been reopened in stages as the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway. ==History== The Midland Railway opened Hazelwood and other stations on the branch line to Wirksworth on 1 October 1867. The London, Midland and Scottish Railway temporarily withdrew Wirksworth branch passenger services from 16 June 1947 due to postwar fuel shortages. British Railways made this closure permanent from May 1949 when the line was removed from the summer timetable. BR withdrew railway goods services from Hazelwood on 2 March 1964, but the branch remained in use for mineral freight until December 1989. The station is the only one on the branch line to have had its original platform removed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Photos of the line restoration between Idridgehay and Duffield, including views of Hazelwood station )〕 The station building and yard were sold and are now the premises of a large timber yard and sawmill.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A.

The section of the line through Hazelwood re-opened to passenger traffic in 2011 but at present there are no plans to reopen the station. 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「Hazelwood railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
