Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Corby station, as in 1990.
View southward, towards Kettering, Bedford and London: ex-Midland (St Pancras) - Kettering - Melton Mowbray - Nottingham etc. main line. Named Corby & Weldon until 4/3/57 and closed 18/4/66. Kettering - Melton Mowbray - Leicester was closed to passenger traffic 6/6/66. Corby then had the distinction of being one of the three largest towns in Europe without a railway station, but the line remained opne for freight and for diversions, Glendon South Junction near Kettering - Corby as a single line. From 11/4/87 until 2/6/90 a DMU shuttle was run by the Corby Council to/from Kettering. In 2008 an entirely new station was built at Corby and from 23/2/09 a regular service has ben run by East Midlands Trains to London St Pancras, with limited services to Oakham and Melton Mowbray. The photograph shows the single Down side platform of the 'minimal' station in 1990.
