Description

You are standing outside Kitting Walk Railway Station, an imposing grey-stone building, its windows missing and broken. Behind railings, you can see railway tracks disappearing into the surrounding city. The building was ruined on 4th May 2011, but I repaired it and barricade. It have much blood, but I don't want to clean because it feels like zombie apocalypse. And I don't care. -- TheQ 10:32, 4 May 2011 (BST)

History

Kitting Walk Railway Station was built in the early 1820s, shortly after the founding of modern-day Malton. It was conceived as part of the industrialisation of the city. and the rail line served to transport products from the numerous factories in the Rolt Heights and Dulston area to the west of the city.

The station itself was specifically designed to transport Maltonians to their various religious obligations- on Sunday, hundreds would crowd out of the station to attend the services at the adjacent St. Luke's Cathedral and St. Arnold's Church. Because of this, it became a very popular quasi-market, with hagglers frequenting the area to barter with various salesmen selling their wares. Rumour has it, a prototype of Vegemite was sold by chemist Cyril Percy Callister here in 1918, but was unpopular and subsequently abandoned as a product in the country.

Kitting Walk barely survived the Great Fire of 1912, and while one train line would run through the city until the outbreak, the other three platforms would be demolished and eventually turned into Connor Park.

Barricade Policy

This place is part of TheQ Barricade Police - only good barricade is extreme barricade. We feel sorry for all those who can't come... most of them are zombies anyway.
