WALES - RAILWAYS – SL 315 05.08.21 page 1 of 21 PASSENGER STATIONS & STOPS Great Western (GW) (1-40), Cambrian (Cam) (42-50), & North Western (LNW) (52-73), Great Central (GC) (75-76), Midland Mid) (78), Rlys (80-112) and Other Railways (115-138)

Based on Bradshaws Guides (Brad), company timetables and my own research, with extra information from the RCHS Chronology (Quick), Clinkers Chronology, Pre-Grouping Atlas (Ian Allan), Private & Untimetabled Railway Stations (Croughton), Atlas of the GWR (Cooke), GB Rail Atlas (Baker), Closed Passenger Lines of 1827-1947 (RCHS), Railways of Great Britain Historical Atlas (Cobb), Transport History 3/1970(TH), Branch Line News (BLN) & other publications. The Railways tables are set out in 5 separate Lists based on the 4 major companies Nationalised in 1948 (Great Western, London Midland & Scottish, London & North Eastern and Southern) and London Transport. These and the & Scotland lists are sub-divided into the major companies amalgamated at Grouping in 1923 & Other Railways. U: unadvertised or locally advertised station/halt with purpose; (date)t/w: public/working timetables h: stations/halts; b: British Railways / National Rail (BR/NR) & predecessors & other rlys stations on lines that became heritage railways; in general only heritage railways operating wholly or in part on these lines (including goods only lines) are included; a few others not on former railways are included if considered to offer an ‘A’ to ‘B’ passenger service. NOT included: most funiculars, cliff rlys, people-movers & miniature rlys; station name “for” and county suffixes; locations where railway workers dropped off for routine or emergency work; most temporary platforms for depot open days, meetings,VIP visits etc; ticket platforms (for ticket inspection) unless evidence found of official use by alighting or boarding passengers; railway enthusiasts excursions. References to the other UK lists (>) with table number: GW: Great Western; LMS: London Midland & Scottish; LNE: London & North Eastern; LT: London Transport; SR: Southern; SC: Scotland; NI: Northern Ireland. Connections (shown thus: >, or >> ) to other lines are only included if used by scheduled passenger services (past and present) Examples of lesser known and short-lived services using these connections are given. Bradshaw sometimes added suffixes to station names that were not part of the station name. It is generally not possible from timetables to determine when these are part of the station name and most are shown in these lists. Explanatory text and major operational & infrastructure locations are shown in bracketted italics. Stations currently open for passengers shown in bold. All other stations closed to scheduled passenger services. For opening, closing, relocation and renaming dates, “for” & county station name suffixes, depot open day etc services, background information and source references, see Railway Passenger Stations in Great Britain, a Chronology by Michael Quick, available free on-line from the Railway & Canal Historical Society (RCHS) web-site. Any dates refer to advertised scheduled passenger services only. (date)t/w: company public/working timetables. pass? : passenger service?; distances in miles ** 1 .etc : refer to former sections of line diverted between these points, or alternative routes, details given at end of the table. Former names [ ] & Welsh names : usually only shown the first time the station appears in this list. Gauge 4’ 8½” unless noted; ex BG, broad gauge, 7’ 0”. English/Welsh names op: opened; cl: closed; rl: relocated; rn: renamed; tm: terminus ; div: diverted; plat: platform; tempy: temporary
