[edit] Location and Beaching
I dispute the location of the station and why the old stations closed, the actual location is at the site of the old Arlesey and Henlow station, whilst the stations closed before Dr Beaching became Chairman of British Railways, my records suggest that the station was closed to allow the quadrupling of the tracks at that point (the route though the station platforms and level crossing being only two tracks). —Preceding unsigned comment added by SouthernElectric (talk • contribs) 16:21, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- 2 out of 3 - Yes, the new station is at the location of the old "Arlesey and Henlow" station, and both it and "Three counties hospital" stations were (I think) probably closed before Beeching. But the quadrupling was done much later. I remember in the 1970's both stations were long closed, but the line still reduced to two tracks at the level crossing (old A507). when the current A507 flyover was built the level crossing was closed and the track was quadrupled. If you look at Google maps you can see the current station platforms lie across the line of the "old" A507, i.e. where the level crossing was, so it is slightly north of where the old station was TiffaF 07:24, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
