Crewkerne railway station
Crewkerne railway station is located in Misterton, Somerset, England, and serves the area around the town of Crewkerne. It is from London Waterloo on the West of England Main Line to Exeter. The main building is listed Grade II and is surrounded by several other old railway buildings.
==History==
The station was opened on 19 July 1860 when the LSWR opened its Yeovil and Exeter Railway. A wooden signal box was erected in 1875 on the eastbound platform, just east of the main offices.
In 1923 the LSWR became part of the Southern Railway following the Railways Act 1921, and on 1 January 1948 the Southern Railway was itself nationalised to become the Southern Region of British Railways. On 24 April 1953 it was the scene of an accident when an axle of Merchant Navy Class 35020 ''Bibby Line'' broke while it was passing the station. This caused the platform canopy to be demolished.〔
A new signal box was built in 1960 a little to the east of the old one, which was then demolished. In January 1963 all the lines in the area transferred to the Western Region and on 7 May 1967 the main line was rationalised.〔 The section between and was reduced to just a single track,〔 although this has since been shortened to just between and Chard Junction.
