Station association

[Springs Branch]

Sutton Coldfield.......

Perry Bar is another DfT Category E station managed by London Midland.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Thame station was situated on the Wycombe Railway.

It opened in 1862 and was closed to passengers in 1963 (freight services carrying on for some years before total closure was effected).

We appear to need an OPEN station association to Sutton Coldfield.

I think he means Haddenham and Thame Parkway, though that did open in 1967.

No, I did mean Thame .... many apologies!



So, moving on from Perry Barr .... another station opened on 4th July 1837 by the Grand Junction Railway was Crewe.

The station I was referring to is the one with Station Code HXX, served by 25kV EMUs operated by Heathrow Express & Heathrow Connect. Not the LU station.
It is possible to plan journeys & buy tickets to/from HXX from around the country using National Rail Enquiries website. I'd still consider the station part of the "BR" network, despite its ownership and some ticketing peculiarities
