GWR Route: Stratford on Avon to Honeybourne

Sancta Lane Station: gwrsanct2467

Schematic plan of the SMJ line and the connections to the GWR line in 1960 after the lifting of the SMJ line to Broom. The junction at the top was built at the same time as the East & West Railway's line to Fenny Compton was opened, thereby allowing its trains to start from the GWR station prior to the opening of its own station. The junction curve at the bottom of the plan was the short lived connection for south bound traffic, opening in June 1965 and closing in May 1965. The two sectional drawings are of Clifford Sidings with the top diagram being from 1885 and the bottom diagram from 1942.
