West Grafton: Former M&SWJR main line railway
Up until closure in 1961 this was the track bed of the former Midland & South Western Junction Railway (M&SWJR) main line railway, viewed looking southwards towards the Andover end of the line. The route of the railway is in use as a main farm access track from this point southwards for several kilometres and is private land.

West Grafton: Former Grafton and Burbage railway station
This a view taken looking up the former Midland & South Western Junction Railway's main line towards the former Grafton and Burbage railway station. Never the busiest of lines in terms of ordinary passenger trains, and even less busy at this station, by 1953 there were just 4 southbound trains that stopped here a day, and, by one of those oddities of railway timetables, only 3 northbound. The line closed in 1961 and the station is today a private residence. This was taken from the public footpath between East and West Grafton that crosses over the line.

West Grafton: A338 Grafton Road and former M&SWJR crossing
Many motorists will drive along the A338 here between East and West Grafton unaware that a former main line railway crossed the road by means of a bridge here, the actual crossing point being somewhere in the trees in the distance. The former Midland & South Western Junction Railway (M&SWJR) double-tracked main line between Cheltenham and Andover was built in 1891 and closed in 1961.
