- Slow_Train abstract ""Slow Train" is a song by the British duo Flanders and Swann, written in 1963.It laments the loss of British stations and railway lines in that era due to the Beeching cuts, and also the passing of a way of life, with the advent of motorways etc.Several of the stations mentioned survived the Beeching Axe: Chester-le-Street, Formby, Ambergate and Arram. Gorton and Openshaw also survives, as Gorton. Chorlton-cum-Hardy closed in January 1967, but re-opened in July 2011 as Chorlton Metrolink station.Selby and Goole were not threatened by Beeching, though the line from Selby to Goole mentioned in the song was closed to passengers. The other line mentioned, from St Erth to St Ives was reprieved, and both stations remain open.Michael Flanders' delivery of the lyrics seems to imply that Formby Four Crosses and Armley Moor Arram were station names, but in both cases he combined two consecutive names from an alphabetical list of stations. It has been suggested that he took the names of the stations from The Guardian, explaining at least some of the discrepancies between the names in the songs and the names of the stations.".
