Overgrown and derelict remains of Priestfield Station, 1978. The former GWR tracks, still in situ at this time, curved away towards Bilston Central and Birmingham (Snow Hill) whilst those formerly serving the West Midland Line platforms (closed 1962) once led in the direction of Bilston West and, eventually, Stourbridge Junction. Note the ex GWR ATC ramp still in place on the Wolverhampton line at the bottom of the picture. The former GWR line had closed to passenger traffic in 1972 and was later reopened as the Midland Metro, Wolverhampton (St George's) to Birmingham (Snow Hill).
