Lowdham railway station is a Grade II listed railway station which serves the village of Lowdham in Nottinghamshire, England.HistoryIt is on the Nottingham to Lincoln Line which was engineered by George Stephenson and opened by the Midland Railway on 3 August 1846. The contractors for the line were Craven and Son of Newark and Nottingham The buildings were designed by Thomas Chambers Hine.The buildings originally comprised a station building and station master's house combined (pictured), and, on the opposite side of the road, a crossing keeper's hut. The level crossing adjacent to the station is still in operation, but the main building passed into private ownership in 1990. It has since been extensively renovated by the owners, and many original features restored.In 2017, Network Rail announced that the platforms would be extended to handle longer trains.ServicesEast Midlands Trains serve this station with trains between and via Nottingham.
