Hixon

Travel Guide

Approaching crossing at site of Hixon station, 1995 View westward, the station (unstaffed Halt since 20/7/31, closed 6/1/47 when local services ceased) had been on the left: ex-North Stafford Stone (to right) - Colwich (to left) loop used by London Euston - Manchester through trains running via Stoke-on-Trent and electrified in 1965-66. There was an RAF Airfield close by and the line was frequently blocked by crashing aircraft during World War Two, but the site is famous for the extraordinary accident of 6/1/68 when an express crashed into a low-loader creeping across the level-crossing carrying a 120-ton electrical transformer.
