GWR Route: Alcester to Hatton Junction

Bearley Station: gwrb439

Looking towards Hatton along the up platform with the main station building located on the up platform and the goods shed on the left. This 1950s view shows the station little changed except for the oil lamps being replaced by electric lighting although apparently re-using most of the original lamp posts. Until the GWR opened the North Warwickshire line all traffic originating from Stratford Upon Avon, and further south-west, to Birmingham was routed via the line running through Bearley. Even after 1908 the GWR ran trains from the West of England via this line a practice continued into BR days.
