History

Brockford and Wetheringsett railway station served the villages of Wetheringsett and Brockford Green in Suffolk. It was on the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway. The station was opened in 1908 and closed in 1952. The station was located six miles from Haughley and was made up of two small corrugated iron clad huts, one acting as booking office, staff room and store room and the other as passenger waiting room.

After the railway closed the station site was turned into an industrial site. When the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway Society began building up their collection, the site of the station's cattle dock was found and the original brickwork makes up part of a new platform at the station.

gollark: <@474726021652807680> If you used that molar mass they have, you would be calculating the mass of a mole of it, which isn't a molecule.
gollark: What mass are you using? You said you wanted to know how big a molecule was or something?
gollark: In that case, put in a mass in grams, and the density in g/L, and you'll get a volume in litres.
gollark: If you get the density in, say, kg/m³, then the mass is in kg and volume is in m³.
gollark: I think common density units are stuff like kilograms per m³, or grams per cm³.
