GCRN Rushcliffe Halt

Rushcliffe Halt is a railway station serving the community north of East Leake, and is the only surviving Great Central Railway London Extension station with twin platforms (as opposed to the GC standard 'island' platform). The stations was built as a later addition to the railway, opening in 1911 to serve the adjacent Rushcliffe Golf Club. Later, sidings would be added to serve the nearby gypsum works. The station closed to passengers in 1963 as part of the famous Beeching Axe, although freight continued to serve British Gypsum until the early 1980s.

During the 1990s, the line and station entered preservation. In 2000 freight trains to the gypsum works resumed and in 2003 a regular passenger service was restored to the station.
