LMS Route: Water Orton to Walsall

Sutton Town Station: mrsc1153

The 1913 Ordnance Survey map showing the location of the MR Sutton Town station in relation to the LNWR station. Its interesting to note that the building on the down platform is nearly as large as that seen on the up platform, the latter being the one in the photograph. Its also noteworthy that both structures are shown to have canopies which are longer in length than either building and cover the full width of the platform. Photographic evidence does not show this feature at any other station on the Water Orton to Walsall line. The map of the LNWR station (on the left) shows that behind the station passenger ramp existed a turntable.
