Marlow railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marlow railway station serves the town of Marlow in Buckinghamshire, England. It is the terminus of a single-track branch line leaving the main Great Western Line at Maidenhead railway station. It is known locally as the Marlow Donkey, after the original locomotive based at Marlow station.
North of Bourne End the line formerly connected to the main line through High Wycombe but when this service was cut the branch to Marlow was retained causing direct services between Marlow and Maidenhead to reverse at Bourne End.
Historically the line was never intended to be a branch but was planned to extend westwards to Henley-on-Thames; however this never proved attractive enough to raise any finance.
