[Xenophon PCDGS]

Craven Arms was also once served by a long-closed branch line.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

The next station on the Heart of Wales Line where trains stop as a matter of course is Knighton.

 

[M-Train]

Knockholt is another station where the settlement served is on the other side of a prominent administrative boundary--in this case, the GLA boundary. (For Knighton, it would be the Anglo-Welsh border, with the station in England and the village in Wales.)

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Witton is also a DfT category "E" station that was opened in 1876.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Witton is the closest station to Villa Park, the home of Aston Villa FC, and is advertised as the station for Villa Park on station signage. There have been discussions on changing the name of Witton Station to Villa Park as is the case with West Bromwich Albion's local railway station, The Hawthorns.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Altrincham also has two heavy rail platforms and two light rail platforms.

 

[Springs Branch]

Dinting has also been served by electric trains operating on 1500V DC and 25kV AC systems.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Broadbottom is also adjacent to a high railway viaduct.

 

[Springs Branch]

Known as Broadbottom when opened in 1842, the station was re-named Mottram in 1845, subsequently being named Mottram & Broadbottom, before reverting to its original name.

Another station which has changed its identity a number of times over the course of its life (going through various permutations & combinations of Farnworth and / or / for Widnes), before settling on the present-day Widnes.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Hough Green is also a Grade II listed railway station that was opened by the Cheshire Lines Committee.

 

[M-Train]

Berrylands is another station where Stagecoach livery 158's can be seen passing through at speed whilst the normal service is provided mainly by Mk3 derived units.

 

[Purple Train]

Berrylands is unusual for a station in the London area in having wooden platforms. Another station with wooden platforms is Winnersh Triangle.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Winnersh Triangle railway station should not be confused with the much older Winnersh station, which is situated on the same line some 1.25 kilometres in the London direction.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Bicester North is also a DfT category "D" station that was opened in 1910.

 

[Purple Train]

Bicester North station lies on what was the last section of main line railway to be built in Britain until the 1983 opening of the Selby Diversion. The Selby Diversion runs from Temple Hirst Junction, south of Selby, to Colton Junction, south of York.

In Britain's 100 Best Railway Stations by Simon Jenkins, York was one of only ten to be awarded five stars; another was Wemyss Bay.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Inverkip was also opened by the Greenock and Wemyss Bay Railway in 1865.

 

[M-Train]

Whilst Inverkip was singled to leave only its up platform, it was the down platform which was retained when Belmont was singled.

Eden Park is also in London Travelcard Zone 5.
