I think we missed Dudley Port Low Level if it counts as a separate station

It is an unusual one to decide, as that closed Low Level station ran under the High Level station, which is still the open station of Dudley Port.

Still, very well noticed on your part...

Darlaston

In order to have reached Darlaston, the way that we are travelling, you would first have to called at the next station after Great Bridge North, which was that of Wednesbury Town

You then could have reversed at Wednesbury Town and taken the right facing chord which would have taken you on to the loop line on which Darlaston was situated.
