Ipswich (1st station, closed 1860)

My records show that there was also yet another station in addition to this one that was open from 1846 to 1860 called Ipswich Stoke Hill, but I think that this was the northern terminus of the Eastern Union Railway but that station was not on the same direct line.

Wiki describes Ipswich Station Rd as being at the opposite end of Stoke Tunnel from the current station, which appears to be upon our current route, but I am unfamiliar with the area and wouldn't risk putting any money on it! :lol:

Heh, heh, no one thought of Rochester Bridge did they?

We are currently on the Stour Valley Railway.....Rochester Bridge was found on the Chatham Main Line, which is many miles away from where we currently are.
