Garston Station
This halt on the Watford Junction - St Albans Abbey branch (invariably known as the 'Abbey' to railway people) was first opened in 1966 to serve an expanding district of Watford. This was unusual in a period when the emphasis was on rationalisation and closure of the railway network, and in fact the branch had been listed for closure in the infamous Beeching Report published only three years earlier.
