Manea railway station, on the line between Peterborough and Ely, serves the village of Manea (pronounced [meɪniː]) in Cambridgeshire, England. During the Beeching era, Doctor Beeching himself refused to close Manea Station, due to "The acute social hardship this would cause".
One of the peculiarities of post-privatised railways is that Manea is operated by National Express East Anglia, despite its not running any services from the station. A similar situation exists at Lockerbie.
[edit] Services
Mondays to Fridays, there are 2 daily trains in each direction operated by CrossCountry. There are 2 eastbound services to Cambridge and Stansted Airport, with 2 westbound services to Peterborough, Leicester and Birmingham New Street.
There are no Sunday services.
