History
The station opened on 7 July 1941 by the LNER to serve the workers at the nearby RAF Kingstown depot.[1] The halt was not available to members of the public. Due to this, it was not believed to have nameboards installed. The halt closed on 6 January 1969 along with the line.[2]
gollark: ???
gollark: If it was number of photons it would be m^-2/μm or something.
gollark: Well, that's *wrong*, because it is not showing number of photons as far as I can see but the total energy of all those photons.
gollark: You said how many, which is in fact quantity.
gollark: The total energy of the photons is *not* the same as the quantity of them.
