This prompted Dr (later Lord) Beeching,\nChairman\nof the British Railways Board, to produce his controversial 1963 report entitled\n&#8216;The Reshaping of British Railways&#8217;. By the end of the 1960s, around 2300\nrailway stations and around 5,000 miles of railway\ntrack had been closed as a result, leaving many railway stations, stationmaster\nhouses, cottages and signal boxes derelict. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the last 40 years there\nhas been a surge in interest in restoring these sites for both commercial and\nresidential use and despite the Government\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/government-pledges-500-million-to-bring-back-historic-rail-lines-improving-connectivity-for-communities-across-the-country\">pledge<\/a> to reinstate historic railway lines in January 2020 with \u00a3500 million\nrestoration fund, there are still opportunities for private buyers to purchase\nrailway land and buildings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But whether you are looking for a restoration opportunity or a quirky, heritage home where the hard work has already been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homesandproperty.co.uk\/luxury\/property\/quirky-onetime-train-station-home-for-sale-in-shropshire-with-two-vintage-holidaylets-perfect-for-a119636.html\">done for you<\/a>, how do you go about finding that illusive property? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"844\" height=\"582\" src=\"https:\/\/yopa-production-wordpress-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1693\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image-4.png 844w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image-4-300x207.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image-4-768x530.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.yopacrm.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image-4-50x34.png 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 844px) 100vw, 844px\"><figcaption>Above: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/property-for-sale\/property-81996242.html\">Dent Station<\/a> in Cumbria, currently for sale with a guide price of \u00a3395,000.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any land available for\npurchase \u2013 both residential and commercial \u2013 which still belongs to Network\nRail is listed on their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.networkrail.co.uk\/industry-and-commercial\/network-rail-property\/buy-property\/\">website<\/a>.

There may also be certain\nrestrictions in place in terms of the types of renovations you can undertake on\nland near to railway lines due to buried cables, electrified tracks or\nhigh-voltage overhead cables.
