On the Oswestry - Whitchurch line.

With the delightfully preserved platform. What could be a better way to spend a holiday than searching for closed stations!

Also on the Oswestry - Whitchurch line.

A really big looking station. I believe they are going to turn the station in to flats.

A side view from the bridge. You can just make out the canopy.

There was also a branch line from Wrexham that joined here that closed in 62.

Again on the Oswestry - Whitchurch line.

This is an absolutely amazing station, out in the middle of nowhere but so grand.

The Cambrian railway emblem carved on the station building. Brilliant!!!!

You can still make out the platform, although I think the conservatory is a later addition!!

On the Llanymynech - Shrewsbury Abbey Line.

I nearly wet myself when I came across this station, closed 74 years but still looks very much like a station. You can see on the wall that there would have been an extra bit.

I celebrated by going to the nearby pub and having Steak and Ale pie. If I went with a girlfriend I reckon she would've had the same, but I went on my own!!

Quite a major station in it's day, I mean look at the size of it.

You could go north to Gobowen, east to Whitchurch and south to Welshpool and Llanfyllin

The line was still used for freight up until 88

Now is the Cambrian visitor centre.

Surprisingly the platform is still there albeit overgrown. You can still see the posts where the station name once went. How fantastic is that!!!

Inbetween Gobowen & Oswestry.

Once again on the Oswestry - Whitchurch line.

When I went there (on my own) it was up for sale.

On the still open Shrewsbury - Chester line.

You can just make out in the background where the Cambrian line would've crossed. Unfortunately the CAM Whittington station has been completely demolished.
