Services
In 1863, the service consisted of eleven trains each way between Stamford and Essendine on weekdays, and two on Sundays. In 1910 the service was fifteen each way on the Essendine branch, seven to Wansford, and eight return, with one extra on Fridays, but no Sunday services, and by 1922, this was reduced to ten each way on weekdays on the Essendine line and four on the Wansford line.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“True love ennobles and dignifies the material labors of life; and homely services rendered for love’s sake have in them a poetry that is immortal.”
—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
“Civil servants and priests, soldiers and ballet-dancers, schoolmasters and police constables, Greek museums and Gothic steeples, civil list and services list—the common seed within which all these fabulous beings slumber in embryo is taxation.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
