Ingra Tor Halt railway station
Ingra Tor Halt railway station was located on the 10.5 mile long single track Princetown Railway in Devon, England, running from Yelverton to Princetown with four intermediate stations. It was opened with only a basic wood platform and shelter in connection with the short-lived re-opening of the adjacent quarry. Its later traffic was entirely walkers and it was retained in an attempt to counter competition from local bus services and encourage tourist traffic.
