Himley railway station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Himley station, circa 1930. Track was never laid on the Eastern platform.

Himley was a station on the Wombourne Branch Line. Unlike other stops along the route, it was deemed worthy of full station status. It was opened by the Great Western Railway in 1925 and closed in 1932. It served the community around Himley Hall.

A picnic area now stands on the site of the station.
