View northward: ex-GWR from Bristol, towards Avonmouth via Henbury (to left), Severn Tunnel and South Wales (in centre); to right Bristol Parkway, Swindon etc. and London, also Cheltenham and Birmingham via Yate. This is a grim relic of a station which was replaced later (11/3/96) by a new station at Filton Abbey Wood, ¼-mile to the south. Local trains on the line to Swindon had ceased since 11/9/61 and those to Avonmouth since 23/11/64.
