Admaston railway station

After the 1923 Grouping, joint operation passed to the London, Midland and Scottish Railway and GWR.

The station remained quite modestly served thereafter (eight eastbound and seven westbound calls by 1947), though the line itself carried heavy volumes of freight and passenger traffic.

The line then passed on to the Western Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, with Admaston becoming an unstaffed halt at the end of June 1952.

The last train called here on the evening of 5 September 1964, with closure to passengers coming into effect two days later.

There are few signs today that the station was ever there, all that remains is the privately owned station house some way back from the line, the steps down to where the platform used to be on the east side (now used by track maintenance personnel), plus a short piece of retaining wall also on the eastbound side The booking office was under the railway bridge set in an arch, it of course is still there too,[2] A feasibility study was undertaken regarding the possibility of reopening in 2003, one assumes lack of parking space was a concern.
