Milcote 1st railway station (site), Warwickshire
Opened in 1859 by the Oxford Worcester and Wolverhampton Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, on what became the line from Cheltenham to Stratford-upon-Avon, this station closed in 1966.
View north towards the later station, also Chambers Crossing Halt and Stratford-upon-Avon. The single 1859 platform and station building would have been to the right of the image, the 1908 platforms were on the far side of the level crossing, beyond the gate. The track-bed is now a path and bridleway.

Milcote Station in 1966
The station at Milcote shortly after closure in 1966. The platform edging has been removed to save on maintenance but the GWR bench outside the station building has not yet been snatched up by 'souvenir hunters'. The Birmingham to Cheltenham via Stratford route continued to be used by diverted long-distance trains, as in this view.

Milcote signal box in 1966
Milcote Station closed to passengers in 1966, though the signal box was to continue to guard the level crossing for another ten years before final closure of the railway south of Stratford upon Avon. This picture was taken one Sunday shortly after closure of the station, with the box manned to deal with long-distance passenger trains between Birmingham and the southwest diverted from the Lickey route.
