NY1643 : Brayton Station (remains)

taken 64 years ago, near to Baggrow, Cumbria, England

Brayton Station (remains)
Brayton Station (remains)
View NE, towards Carlisle (and former junction with SJR); ex-Maryport & Carlisle main line and junction with Solway Junction Railway (SJR). Brayton station closed to passengers on 5/6/50, to goods 27/9/65. The southern portion of the SJR from Brayton to Annan over the Solway Viaduct had been closed in 9/21. See also NY2162 : Bowness-on-Solway Station (converted). Note the rather striking architecture - and it seems that after 11 years the station here was 'privatised'.
