HistoryThe station at Southwell opened on 1 July 1847 as a branch line from the Nottingham and Lincoln Railway at Fiskerton railway station[1] In 1862 gas lighting was introduced.[2] In 1871 the line was extended to Mansfield by the contractors Eckersley and Baylis,[3] using cast iron bridges built by Handyside and Co. of Derby.[4] The Midland Railway took the opportunity to rebuild the platform shelters, and the station master's house was dismantled and rebuilt at Beeston railway station. The Mansfield to Southwell section, which passed through a mining area subject to subsidence, closed to passengers in 1929,[5] but the Southwell to Rolleston Junction section remained open until 1959 and freight services ended only in 1964. Current situationThe route of the branch line is now a trail. Rolleston Junction station remains open as Rolleston. It is close to Southwell Racecourse, about three miles (4.8 km) south-east of the town itself. {{Disused Rail Start}}{{Rail line|previous=Rolleston JunctionLine closed, station open |next=Kirklington Line and station closed |route=Midland Railway Rolleston Junction to Mansfield |col={{MR colour}} }}{{Rail line |previous=Fiskerton Line closed, station open |next=Kirklington Line and station closed |route=Midland Railway Fiskerton to Mansfield |col={{MR colour}} }}{{rail end}} References1. ^{{cite news |author= |title=Nottingham and Lincoln Railway |url=http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000298/18470703/022/0003 |newspaper=Leicestershire Mercury |location=British Newspaper Archive |date=3 July 1847 |access-date=29 August 2016 |via=British Newspaper Archive |subscription=yes}} {{coord|53.081883|-0.94613|type:railwaystation_region:GB|display=title}}{{Closed Stations Nottinghamshire}}2. ^Nottinghamshire Guardian, 4 April 1862.{{clarify|date=March 2014|reason=please also provide title of article, page number, and author (if known)}} 3. ^Sheffield Daily Telegraph, 24 February 1871.{{clarify|date=March 2014|reason=please also provide title of article, page number, and author (if known)}} 4. ^Derby Mercury, 8 March 1871.{{clarify|date=March 2014|reason=please also provide title of article, page number, and author (if known)}} 5. ^Derby Daily Telegraph, 3 August 1929,{{clarify|date=March 2014|reason=please also provide title of article, page number, and author (if known)}} 6 : Disused railway stations in Nottinghamshire|Railway stations opened in 1847|Railway stations closed in 1959|Former Midland Railway stations|1847 establishments in England|Southwell, Nottinghamshire |
