| + | '''Hammond''' was originally planned to be the commercial centre for the region and was one of the sites selected for a proposed connection to the '''Wilmington Line''' but the population growth never reached the required level. By the time the line was closed '''Hammond''' was almost a ghost town.<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | The line from '''Eurelia''' to '''Quorn''' was closed in 1987 and most of the track was removed in 2008.<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Today the ghost town status of '''Hammond''' has not changed. Two former railway workers cottages still survive. | ||
