Diggle Railway Station 1.54

Diggle railway station served the village of Diggle and was located on the Huddersfield Line to the north of Uppermill. Situated immediately to the west of the Standedge tunnels, it was opened in 1849 along with the first rail tunnel and closed to passenger traffic in 1968. In its heyday, the station had platforms serving all four lines but little trace remains of it today.
On 5 July 1923, an express passenger train was in a rear-end collision with a freight train. Four people were killed.
In March 2012, a campaign to reopen the station was launched by a local Liberal Democrat parish councillor.
