Hucknall station
53°02′17″N 01°11′44″W / 53.03806°N 1.19556°W
Hucknall station, also formerly known as Hucknall Byron station, is a railway station and tram stop in Hucknall, Nottinghamshire, England. It is located on the Robin Hood railway line, 5 miles (8 km) north of Nottingham, and is also the northern terminus of the Nottingham Express Transit (NET) tram system. The station has park and ride facilities, with nearly 450 parking spaces for use by both tram and train passengers.
TrentBarton's Connect Red/Blue bus services transport passengers to the town centre and the western estates, stopping adjacent to the tram stop. The Stagecoach-operated 141 bus service connects passengers to the town centre, the eastern estate and the surrounding villages, stopping on the road bridge above the station or adjacent to the Tesco.
The Tesco Extra and the Ashgate Retail Park, including Argos, Home Bargains and Kennelgate retailers, are located close to the station.
Hucknall station first opened as Hucknall on 2 October 1848, with the opening of the Midland Railway's line from Nottingham to Mansfield. It was located some 4 chains (260 ft; 80 m) from the current station site and was the first of several stations to serve the town, including the Great Northern's Hucknall Town and the Great Central's Hucknall Central.
Hucknall station was relocated to its current site on 22 December 1895 and was renamed Hucknall Byron on 11 August 1952, to avoid confusion with the town's other stations. It was closed to passenger traffic, along with all the other stations on the line, on 12 October 1964; the railway line itself was retained for goods traffic.
On 17 May 1993, this line was reopened by British Rail to passenger traffic, as part of the new Robin Hood Line, and the station was reopened under its original name; the other Hucknall stations having closed in the meantime.
The tram stop opened on 9 March 2004, along with the rest of Nottingham Express Transit's first phase.
