History
The station opened as Sandiacre and Stapleford on 6 September 1847 by the Midland Railway. It closed on 1 May 1872[1] but a second station opened on the same day. The second station's name was changed to Stapleford and Sandiacre in 1884. It closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 2 January 1967.[2][3][4]
