Tonbridge also has a station code which is the first three letters of the station name.

Wilmslow is where the Styal and Crewe to Man-Picc lines diverge. They do not converge again until Salde Lane Junction. The next stop after Slade Lane Jn is Manchester Piccadilly.

Liverpool Street is at one end of the Great Eastern main line. The other end is at Norwich.

Until its closure in 2018 Liverpool Lime Street signal box had one of the last two Westinghouse miniature lever frames on the national network. The last surviving example can be found in the signal box at Maidstone East.

An extremely limited number of services from West Malling terminate at London Cannon St

(1U19 and 1U77 on Tuesdays in the WTT. Anyone got any clue why they have this service? Parliamentary requirement, or route retention for diversions?)

Marylebone is another London terminus which is not managed directly by Network Rail.

The long closed branch line from Nantwich originally ran to Market Drayton but was later extended to Wellington.
