Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Leiston Level Crossing A hand operated crossing still exists in Leiston, to the right is the old station. It is the remains of the East Suffolk lines Aldeburgh branch. Opening in June 1859 to Leiston and August 1860 to Aldeburgh.
After closure to passengers on 12th September 1966 the line was lifted 1 mile east of the town. However the remaining 5.5 mile stub was used for Sizewell A nuclear trains, taking spent fuel to Sellafield. All the fuel will have been cleared by 2012, more use may be required with the building of Sizewell C (and d?) after that the future is uncertain. |
