Glendon and Rushton station was originally known as Rushton it was opened in 1857 by the Midland Railway on what is now the Midland Main Line. The station was renamed in 1896 when Rushden opened in 1894 a small town with a similar name near wellingborough also in Northants.
The line originally was a line from Leicester to Hitchin and now the main line to London this station was closed on the 4th January 1960
how it looked in its prime
The old ticket hatch
Unfortunately I could not gain access to the station masters house as CCTV was very much operational
Thanks for looking
