We have only just returned home and I would like to add that Bridgeford came before Great Bridgeford.
Once we passed the open stations of Stafford and then of Penkridge, there were still no less than seven closed stations of the Grand Junction Railway until we reached the open station of Walsall, where we then could meet the South Staffordshire line where the first closed station would be that of Wednesbury Town (1850-1964).
Those seven closed stations after Penkridge on the Grand Junction Railway are:-
Gailey
Four Ashes
Bushbury
Wednesfield Heath
Portobello
Willenhall Bilston Street
Pleck
However, as you have found a different route to the one I envisaged, I will not post again until our differing routes converge
