History


Situated on Nottingham Road, it opened in 1847 on the Erewash Valley Line.[1] The station built by the Midland Counties Railway known as Long Eaton and opened in 1839 was renamed Long Eaton Junction.

It closed for passengers on 1 June 1863[2] when a new Long Eaton station opened on Station Road, but appears to have remained open for goods traffic for a few years afterwards.
