Smithy Bridge is another station on the Calder Valley Line which was reopened in 1985 on - or near the site of a former station that had been closed.

The Thames Turbo in the Ladbroke Grove disaster was leaving Paddington for Bedwyn. The incoming HST it collided with was coming into Paddington from Cheltenham Spa

St. Albans Abbey, working back from Windermere, is also a terminus of a branch off of the WCML.

St. Albans Abbey was the second UK railway station to receive a Harrington Hump to improve accessibility; the first one was, unsurprisingly, Harrington station in Cumbria.

South Greenford is another GWR station which may be said to have (had) an experimental service; battery-electric rather than atmospheric.

Ham street ends in a t as well
Just a gentle reminder that we need a rail based association and I don't think "they both end in 't'" really counts.

We're still at Hillfoot so how about Shettleston which is also a station on the North Clyde Line served via Glasgow Queen Street.
