Fullerton (1st)

When that station which was originally opened in 1865 as Fullerton Bridge was relocated in 1885 it was only a very short distance to the south and was then renamed as Fullerton Junction, in order to enable junction facilities with the 1885-opened Hustborne-Fullerton line, so on this quiz, we normally only accept one station entry of a Fullerton name.
