Milton Range Halt Railway Station
Milton Range Halt was a halt between Denton Halt and Hoo Junction Staff Halt on the Hundred of Hoo Railway. It opened in July 1906 and closed to public use on 17 September 1932, although it remained open by special arrangement after that date until some time after 1956. It served Milton Range rifle range. The station was constructed on a low embankment to the south of the Thames and Medway Canal beyond Higham, where the line climbs at 1 in 215 and then falls in a short cutting at 1 in 267. Initially, an island platform was provided, but this was removed in 1914 to be replaced by wooden facing platforms. These were later rebuilt in concrete and survived beyond official closure to passenger traffic in 1932. At the eastern end of the platforms was a gated sleeper crossing which carried a public footpath over the line.

Sittingbourne And Kemsley Light Railway
The Sittingbourne and Kemsley Light Railway in Kent is a narrow gauge heritage railway that operates from Sittingbourne to the banks of The Swale. The line was developed as an industrial railway by paper maker Frank Lloyd in 1904, to transport pulp materials and finished products between Ridham Dock, on the Swale, and the company's paper mill at Sittingbourne, and from the mid-1920s to a second mill at Kemsley. In the late 1960s, the railway faced closure by its then owners Bowater, but the Locomotive Club of Great Britain accepted an offer to operate the railway from 1970. However, the section of line from Kemsley Down to Ridham Dock was abandoned for redevelopment of the paper mills. In 2008-09, the line survived a threat of closure due to the owners of Sittingbourne Paper Mill closing the mill and selling the land. The lease then held by the railway expired in January 2009, but negotiations resulted in the railway being saved, although no public trains ran in 2009. In Sep ...

Milton Halt Railway Station
Milton Halt railway station is a former railway station that served the village of Milton in northern Oxfordshire, England. History The station was built by the Great Western Railway. It opened to passengers on 1 January 1908 (Jenkins gives the date as 1 January 1906 but the Board of Trade plan on the same page is dated 14 November 1907 suggesting that the 1908 date given by other sources is correct). The Halt had a wooden platform and "pagoda" shelter. There was also a small corrugated iron shed, identified as "office" on the 1907 Board of Trade plan, with the area between the two buildings identified as "space for milk churns". Although no goods facilities were provided, milk traffic was important and as soon as the halt opened two farmers paid £5 a year each for milk carriage. Hemmings Vol.1, p.158. The halt was located on an embankment and approached by a cinder path from the road below. It was unstaffed and the guards of the first and last trains of the day would ligh ...
