GWR Route: Moreton-in-Marsh to Shipston-on-Stour
Moreton-in-Marsh Station: gwrmm979a
Close up of image 'gwrmm979' showing the unusual and
intricate porch added to the main passenger structure after originally built.
It is thought that the porch, built using timber, was added sometime around the
turn of the century as it is not evident in image 'gwrmm3058'. The station master's office was located on
the right whilst the booking office, passenger waiting rooms and facilities
were located in the middle at the opposite end of the building. The three
railwaymen chatting by the station master's office would in a few years be
fewer in number as the rise in competition from road transport impacted upon
both passenger and freight loadings.
