Opened in 1898 by the Lambourn Valley Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, on its branch from Newbury to Lambourn, this station closed to passengers in 1960. View east towards Great Shefford and Newbury. The view is along the former single railway track, with the one platform having been to the right of it, where the bungalow now is. No trace of the station apparently remains. For more information, see http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/e/east_garston/index.shtml.
