Great Broughton railway station

Great Broughton railway station briefly served the village of Great Broughton, near Cockermouth in Cumberland (now in Cumbria), England. The station was opened by the Cleator and Workington Junction Railway (C&WJR) on 1 September 1908 on its "Northern Extension" from Calva Junction on the northern edge of Workington to the Maryport and Carlisle Railway's Derwent Branch at Linefoot. The C&WJR built this 7 miles 30 chains (11.9 km) line to connect the C&WJR with Carlisle and beyond. The line was double track from Workington to Seaton, then single through Great Broughton to Linefoot. Most stations on C&WJR lines had heavy industrial neighbours, such as ironworks next to Cleator Moor West, or served primarily industrial workforces, such as Keekle Colliers' Platform. Great Broughton, however, was a fairly isolated country village, though there were small collieries nearby.
