From the Wikipedia article
Appledore railway station serves the village of Appledore, in Kent, England. It is a Grade II listed station on the Marshlink line; services are provided by Southern. The station was constructed in 1851 by the South Eastern Railway and designed by William Tress. It became a junction station in 1881 when a branch line opened to Lydd and New Romney; this closed to passengers in 1967, following implemenation of the Beeching Report, though the line remains open for goods traffic to Dungeness nuclear power station. Despite a recommendation in the report that Appledore should also close, it remained open.
