Manea railway station, on the line between Peterborough and Ely, serves the village of Manea (pronounced locally as [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 perculiarities of post-privitised railways is Manea is operated by 'one', despite it not running any services from the station. A similar situation exists at Lockerbie.
