Many 通勤（学）者s may be fed up with over-（人が）群がるing on the 鉄道s, but there are some 駅／配置するs which serve a just handful of 乗客s each year.

New 人物／姿／数字s have 明らかにする／漏らすd a number of 'ghost' 駅／配置するs which receive より小数の than 100 travellers a year - with the least-used 施設 serving just 14 last year.

These 事実上 redundant 駅／配置するs are 明らかに kept open by the rail companies 単独で so they can 避ける the 官僚主義 it would take to 公式に の近くに them.

砂漠d: Teesside Airport 鉄道 駅／配置する is Britain's least-used with just 14 乗客s last year

Overkill: Dorking West, which served 16 乗客s, is one of three 駅／配置するs in the town of 17,000

Data 解放（する）d yesterday by the Office of Rail 規則 階級 every 駅／配置する in the country by how many 乗客s pass through each year.

The least-used 駅／配置する of all was Teesside Airport, 近づく Darlington, which was visited by just 14 乗客s in the 2011-12 財政上の year.

The 駅／配置する's unpopularity is 予定 to the fact that it receives just one train per week, and is linked to an airport with just two 正規の／正選手 scheduled flights.

Second is Dorking West in Surrey, where 16 乗客s got on or off a train last year.

Although trains stop at the 駅／配置する every two hours, it is 手足を不自由にする／（物事を）損なうd by 存在 one of three 駅／配置するs in a town of just 17,000 inhabitants.

（選挙などの）運動をする: 行動主義者s argue that Denton in Greater Manchester, where 30 乗客s got on or off a train last year, deserves a more たびたび（訪れる） service

Underused: 赤みを帯びた South is on the same line as Denton, receiving just one train a week with no return service, and welcomed 56 乗客s last year

Denton, in Greater Manchester, is at the centre of a （選挙などの）運動をする 目的（とする）ing to 増加する its number of 乗客s from the 30 it received in 2011-12.

行動主義者s argue that the only 推論する／理由 the 駅／配置する cannot attract more people is that it receives just one train a week, 長，率いるing to Stalybridge, while there is no service which goes in the opposite direction.

Alan Jones, chairman of the Friends of Denton 駅／配置する, 示唆するd that the 人物／姿／数字s were 誤って導くing and 非難するd 鉄道 公式の／役人s for the 駅／配置する's neglect.

'I'm sure that if there were more trains people would use them,' he told the 独立した・無所属. 'This is a valued service and we are trying to get a 正規の／正選手 service.'

But Northern Rail said the only 推論する／理由 it kept the 駅／配置する open was to fulfil the 条件 of its franchise 協定.

A total of eight 駅／配置するs had 乗客 numbers in 二塁打 人物／姿／数字s, 含むing 赤みを帯びた South, Coombe and Barry Links.

By way of comparison, the busiest 駅／配置する in 2011-12 was London Waterloo, where 94,045,510 passed through.

All of the 最高の，を越す seven busiest were in London, with Victoria and Liverpool Street taking second and third place.

The highest-placed 駅／配置するs outside the 資本／首都 were Birmingham New Street, Glasgow Central and 物陰／風下d.

スキャンダル: 駅／配置するs like Coombe, which served 60 people last year, are kept open for bureaucratic 推論する／理由s

Contrast: The busiest 駅／配置する in Britain last year was London Waterloo, with nearly 100million 乗客s

The neglect of so many of Britain's smaller 駅／配置するs を強調するs how many areas are under-served by the 鉄道 網状組織 にもかかわらず having their own 施設s for trains.

It is easier for train operating countries to run 'zombie' services on lines they no longer wish to serve 適切に, as の近くにing 駅／配置するs 要求するs a 非常に長い 協議 過程.

The 50th 周年記念日 of the Beeching 削減（する）s which の近くにd more than 2,000 駅／配置するs fell earlier this year.

The 議論の的になる move meant many smaller towns were left with a 駅／配置する, and many services were re-大勝するd to pass through London and other 全住民 中心s.

But the 最新の 人物／姿／数字s on 未使用の 駅／配置するs show that even some communities which were spared the axe do not have an 効果的に 機能（する）／行事ing 鉄道.
