[4] On 9 September 1894 it was replaced by another station also named Cheltenham,[1] on a nearby site, slightly to the east, which had two curved semi-island platforms;[5] two more were added later.
[7] In 1904 the station was able to handle goods, passengers, parcels, furniture vans, carriages, portable engines, machines on wheels, livestock, horse boxes, prize cattle vans and private carriages; there was a crane capable of lifting 8 long tons (8,100 kg).
[10] It was not until the British Railways period that these were eventually diverted to the former GWR stations at St. James and Malvern Road, this occurring from 3 November 1958,[11] but less than three years later, on 9 September 1961,[7] the services along the MSWJR line ceased entirely.
A plaque has been affixed to the entrance of the store by Cheltenham Civic Society to commemorate the now-demolished terminus.
[18] Prior to the construction of the superstore, which opened in 2002,[19] the trackbed was used as a cyclepath linking the town with Cheltenham Leisure Centre, and so when planning permission for the redevelopment of the station site was granted, a condition was imposed that the developer construct a new pedestrian bridge to ensure continued access to the remaining trackbed.
