Geerdijk Railway Station
Geerdijk was a railway station in Geerdijk, Netherlands, The Netherlands. The station was opened on 1 October 1906 and is on the Mariënberg–Almelo railway. The station was on a single track line but had 2 platforms. This is because there is a level crossing in between. The train runs over the level crossing first and then stops on the platform. This is so that the level crossing doesn't have to be closed while the train waits. The station was announced as the second-least used station in the Netherlands in 2005 with an average of 60 passengers a day. For this reason, the railway station was closed on 29 April 2016. This allows Arriva to extend the train service from Mariënberg to Hardenberg.. Platforms * Platform 1a is the northern one, formerly offering the service to Mariënberg. * Platform 1b is the southern one, formerly offering the service to Almelo.

Railway Station
Rail transport (also known as train transport) is a means of transport that transfers passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which are incorporated in tracks. In contrast to road transport, where the vehicles run on a prepared flat surface, rail vehicles (rolling stock) are directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Tracks usually consist of steel rails, installed on sleepers (ties) set in ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. Other variations are also possible, such as "slab track", in which the rails are fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface. Rolling stock in a rail transport system generally encounters lower frictional resistance than rubber-tyred road vehicles, so passenger and freight cars (carriages and wagons) can be coupled into longer trains. The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport between train stations or freight customer facilit ...

Geerdijk
Geerdijk is a village in the Netherlands, Dutch province of Overijssel. It is located in the municipality of Twenterand. It became a village in 2009. History Geerdijk was founded in the mid-19th century along the canal Almelo–De Haandrik as a peat excavation village. It was a Catholic enclave which was settled by colonists from neighbouring Germany and the area around Slagharen and Dedemsvaart. In 1868, an independent parish was established. In 1906, the Geerdijk railway station opened on the Mariënberg–Almelo railway, and closed on 29 April 2016. It was closed, because there were not enough passengers and Arriva wanted to increase the speed to allow an extension of the line to Hardenberg. Geerdijk used to be part of the municipality of Den Ham. In 2001, it was merged into Twenterand. It was considered a hamlet of Vroomshoop. In 2009, Geerdijk separated from Vroomshoop, and became a village. Gallery File:Geerdijk nooorderweg oudste nog bestaande woning.jpg, Oldest exta ...
