Hagley Road

Hagley Road station was the only intermediate station to posses a goods yard and coal wharf located at the Birmingham end and on the same side of the track as the single platform station. The station's simple track layout was, it is believed, controlled by a ground frame. Because of the goods facility the station remained in use up to the end of 1963 albeit only in for goods traffic.
