Rodwell railway station

Rodwell was a small railway station on the Portland Branch Railway in the west of the English county of Dorset.

However, as part of a scheme that saw several halts opened on the GWR with Railmotor services to counter road competition, a passing place was put in and Rodwell gained another platform and a signal box.

[1] The former trackbed of the line is now part of the Rodwell Trail footpath.

The former platforms are still in place, just south of the tunnel, under a road and the former Portwey Hospital site.
