Haggerleases railway station, also known as Butterknowle railway station, served the village of Butterknowle, County Durham, England, in 1859 on the Haggerleases Branch.
History[]
The station was opened in April 1859 by the Stockton and Darlington Railway, although there is evidence of it being used earlier by horse-drawn coaches. This ended in 1847. It was served by one train per day in May 1859 but this was increased to two trains per day in June. It was a very short-lived station, closing in August 1859.[1][2]
