Lawrence Hill was also the scene of a rail accident in 1930.

Patchway was also opened by the Bristol and South Wales Union Railway.

Llandudno Junction also is now situated on a different station site to that of the originally opened railway station

Many moons ago, a Class 90 ended up at Llandudno Junction after an error led to the loco not being detached at Crewe

 

[InvernessTMD]

Deleted. Didn’t see the part about the station being open. Whoops. Sorry

Newcastle is also a 12-platform railway station.

 

[Tetragon213]

Morpeth is the only other station on the ECML that is served by all TOCs which pass through it

This anomaly is mostly down to Lumo; they only call at Newcastle, Morpeth, and Stevenage en route. Grand Central then skips Stevenage, leaving just 2 non-terminal stations on the ECML served by all TOCs

Wool is also a DfT category "E" station that was opened in 1847.

Banavie is another station that formerly hosted camping coaches.

Reedham (Norfolk) is also located near to a swing bridge.

Berney Arms was also opened by the Yarmouth and Norwich Railway in 1844.

Dovey Junction is also a station with very limited non-railway access.

Meadowhall is also located within the vee of a junction.

Pontefract Baghill is also on the Dearne Valley Line.

 

[Tetragon213]

A curve of track that passed under Knottingley Rd once connected P'fract Baghill with Pontefract Monkshill

Has there ever been a change of name from what is now Pontfract Monkhill?

 

[SteveyBee131]

Our friend Mr W. Pedia doesn't suggest so (I know to take it's offerings with a pinch of salt ), therefore I'll take it as a typing error for Monkhill and carry on...

Mirfield is another of the 'smaller' stations in West Yorkshire which benefit from direct trains to London, thanks to Grand Central.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Prestatyn is also a station that was relocated from the original station site.

 

[RDP]

Rhyl is another DfT category D station in Denbighshire.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

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

 

[A S Leib]

Nantwich is the most southwesterly station bar one in North West England. The most northwesterly station bar one in South West England is Cheltenham Spa.

This is a case where definitions may vary slightly, but I think I have a case for saying this.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Bath Spa is also a DfT category C1 station that was opened in 1840.

 

[RDP]

In much the same way that Bath Spa was so named to distinguish it for the long closed Bath Green Park Dover Priory was so named to distinguish it from the long closed Dover Western Docks.

Trivia. Bath Green Park and Dover Western Docks both still survive in non railway use.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Bangor is also located between two tunnels

 

[RDP]

Hereford is another DfT category C1 station managed by TfW.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]
