Blue Anchor railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blue Anchor railway station is a station on the West Somerset Railway, a heritage railway in Somerset, United Kingdom. It is situated in the seaside village of Blue Anchor and houses the museum of the West Somerset Steam Railway Trust.
The station is situated on a passing loop on the single track line and has two platforms. The station was opened in 1874 with only one platform, but the second platform was built by the Great Western Railway in 1904. It was designed purely for excursionists and was cheaply built which explains why it does not look like those at either Washford, Dunster or Minehead. This is most notable in the odd shape of the ladies room, because it follows the boundary of the site.
