Blenheim and Woodstock railway station : ウィキペディア英語版 | Blenheim and Woodstock railway station
Blenheim & Woodstock was a railway station constructed in the neoclassical style which served the town of Woodstock and Blenheim Palace in the English county of Oxfordshire. The station, as well as the line, was constructed by the Duke of Marlborough〔Searle, MV (1983) Lost Lines: Anthology of Britain's Lost Railways, New Cavendish Books p. 128.〕 and was privately run until 1897 when it became part of the Great Western Railway. The number of trains serving the station was cut in the late 1930s, and again in 1952 down to only six trains a day.〔Searle, MV (1983) Lost Lines: Anthology of Britain's Lost Railways, New Cavendish Books p. 129.〕 The last train ran on 27 February 1954 adorned with a wreath. The station building was initially converted into a garage and petrol station. Then the forecourt of the site was no longer used as a petrol station, but for used car sales only with a building company using some of the land behind the station. There was some talk of the building being demolished for building on the site but after a few years this had not materialised despite plans being submitted. In 2013 the land behind the station building was built on as a small estate of high specification houses, and the station building has been retained with no major changes to the main structure but small changes to the detail. It is now to be used as small offices and commercial premises. The forecourt is now a small landscaped garden. ==Routes==
