There are very few closed/abandoned/derelict stations left. Most closed stations have either been sold off for use as homes, or have been demolished and the sites cleared for use for some other purpose.
Etruria, Stone and Barlaston in Staffordshire no longer have any trains serving them.
Not even a RRS - passengers have to use the local minibus service...Doesn't Norton Bridge not get a service?
*Tonuge in cheek*
Eastleigh, Fratton, Bournemouth and West Worthing are just a few of the closed depots around.

If your location wasn't classified, people might be able to recommend some local places to you
In my area, we have the Gosport line, the Meon Valley line and the Hayling Island branch.
Fratton Goods yard disappeared under B&Q, McDonalds and KFC.
One the largest semi intact, closed lines, is the Great Central. A friend recently showed me of the it in the Leicester area, including the old station. Well worth a visit.
Compared to being a maintenance and repair depot for 24 PIGs and what ever slammers couldn't get back to Fratton.Bournemouth is still open for C4s
Compared to being a maintenance and repair depot for 24 PIGs and what ever slammers couldn't get back to Fratton. I'm surprised it lasted that long, being at the end of a branch
