Dinting

 

[gnolife]

Dinting aint the one im thinking of

 

[TukayAway]

im expecting someone to get this one pretty quick
This was once a through station between two citys but is not now. However trains can go to two different stations by reversing. Currently, the two citys have 5 passenger trains passing between them every two hours per direction, with more on saturdays. The former through line is used as a footpath. It is operationally within a PTE area, but in terms of location, not.

Let's try Hadfield?

 

[gnolife]

Hadfield is the right answer!

 

[TukayAway]

This is probably too easy, but hasn't been mentioned yet:

This UK railway station only ever received one train before being closed.

 

[Death]

Not Reddish South, I presume?

[TukayAway]

Caernarvon ? SPecial station for investiture of Prince of Wales in 1969 ??

 

[TukayAway]

Good effort and geographically closest. But wasn't Caernarvon station still open in 1969?

 

[Mvann]

Didn't Caernarfon reopen for a bit when brittania bridge caught fire as well. There was a special platform built for the investiture but had more than one train.

 

[chuffchuff]

Looks like more than one then ???

 

[TukayAway]

Have I really stumped everyone?

 

[4SRKT]

Yes, and you have been doing for weeks!

 

[martinsh]

All I know is that it's nearer to Caernarfon than Derby (Ramsline halt) !

I think some sort of clue is needed. Is it in Ireland, by any chance ?

 

[Mvann]

There was a station opened for one day in Ireland for pope John pauls visit, but had more than one train.

 

[TukayAway]

Hmm, a clue or two is needed then.

1. It was in Wales.
2. It was pre 1900.

I never said it was a passenger train! Well done sir.
