Trivia: Consecutive Reopened Stations

[edwin_m]

With the re-opening of Ilkeston we now have three consecutive stations that were closed in or around the Beeching era and re-opened in different decades: Ilkeston (2010s), Langley Mill (1980s), Alfreton (1970s). Are there similar examples of consecutive re-opened stations elsewhere? I suggest excluding those where a new service has been added and a batch of stations opened together.

How about Digby & Sowton and Newcourt, on the Exmouth branch.

Another trio of reopened stations:

Milliken Park (1980s)
Howwood (2000s)
Lochwinnoch (1960s)

Lostock and Horwich on the Bolton-Preston line

Another group of three:

Beauly (2000s)
Muir of Ord (1970s)
Conon Bridge (2010s)

Aren't most of the stations between Cardiff Central and Swansea (save Bridgend, Port Talbot and Neath) an array of random reopenings?

 

[Mag_seven]

Stepps (1980s) and Gartcosh (2000s)

Cononley and Steeton (though not many years apart IIRC)

 

[Altnabreac]

Technically not reopenings but four new post war stations in a row on the Wemyss Bay line:
IBM Halt 1978
Branchton 1967
Drumfrochar 1998
Whinhill 1990

Lostock and Horwich on the Bolton-Preston line

Being pedantic, Horwich Parkway is not on the same site (or indeed line) as the original Horwich station, which was on a branch off the main line well over a mile or two away. There (to my knowledge) had never previously been a station on the current site of Horwich Parkway.

Lostock is a reopening of Lostock Junction on the same site.

Settle & Carlisle stations which were closed in 1970 and reopened in 1986
3 consecutive- Armathwaite, Lazonby and Langwathby
5 consecutive- Kirkby Stephen, Garsdale, Dent, Ribblehead and Horton-in-Ribblesdale

Hendsford, Rugeley Town and Rugeley Trent Valley (Chase Line) opened in 1989, 1997 and 1998 respectively.

Newstead (1993), Kirkby in Ashfield (1996) and Sutton Parkway (1995) I think are ones.

 

[penrithsteve]

Possibly stretching the rules a bit, but here are four post-Beeching stations in a row, all with different dates:
Filton Abbey Wood (re-sited in 1996)
Bristol Parkway (new 1972)
Yate (reopened 1989)
Cam & Dursley (reopened on different site 1994)

Some interesting answers, and surprisingly many of them not in PTE areas!

 

[Sceptre]

Although you can't get a direct train between the two, Brighouse and Deighton.

Its a long-term goal of WYITA to re-open Elland, which will make this a string of three.

 

[penrithsteve]

Another interesting example is:
Haddenham & Thame Parkway - reopened on new site 1987
Bicester Village (Bicester Town) - reopened 1987
Islip - reopened 1989
Oxford Parkway - new 2015
Now all served by one service, but when re-opened they were on two different lines.

This may be a bit of a stretch but..

New Pudsey (1967) arguably a re-opening of Stanningley, but before it shut, and for Greenside and Lowtown
Bramley (1983)

 

[NorthernSpirit]

Ones I know of are Pontefract Tanshelf, Featherstone and Streethouse which reopened reopened on the same day in 1992.

Adwick reopened in 1993, Brighouse 2000, Glashoughton 2005, Apperley Bridge 2015, Cranbrook 2015, Kirkstall Forge 2016, Ilkeston 2017 and Low Moor 2017.

Then hopefully Elland in 2018.

 

[noddingdonkey]

I think Ponty T, Streethouse and Featherstone fall foul of the OP's rule

I suggest excluding those where a new service has been added and a batch of stations opened together.
