Data description (abstract)

ArcGIS shapefile of the 1686 railway stations open for public carriage of passengers and/or freight for England, Wales and Scotland in 1861. These data derive from a time dynamic GIS of the railway stations of England, Wales and Scotland 1807 to 1998, which is structured so that it can generate a GIS of rail stations for any given year between these dates.
