LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton

Hampton in Arden Station: lnwrhia687

View of the modified station booking hall, showing the cantilevered roof over the main entrance now being much reduced in depth. On the left it can be seen that the original passenger footbridge has been removed which has resulted in the bridge wall being rebuilt at a lower height. The LNWR station at Hampton in Arden was opened 1st September 1884 and was given the suffix 'in Arden' by the LNWR to differentiate it from the original B&DJR station which as can be seen in image 'lnwrhiaj1560' was originally named Derby Junction but later changed to Hampton.
