Eardington Halt railway station

Eardington Halt is a closed railway station on the Severn Valley Railway near Eardington, south of Bridgnorth, in Shropshire.
Eardington opened as one of the original stations on the Severn Valley line, with a brick waiting room and single platform, but was not readily accessible from the nearby villages of Chelmarsh and Eardington and was demoted to a halt.
In the later years under British Railways control, Eardington Halt had much of its custom from fishermen at weekends and during the summer months. Although mistakenly thought by some people to have been closed as part of the Beeching axe in 1963 Eardington's planned closure pre-dated his report.
Eardington reopened when reached by preservationists in 1970 reaching up from Bridgnorth. Several attempts were made to restore the halt but Eardington was deleted from the timetable in 1982 because of poor custom, land slippage and the fact that the station is situated on a 1 in 100 gradient. Another problem is the combination of the shortness of the platform face, normal SVR practice of marshalling the guard's compartment in the centre of the train and the arched overbridge immediately to the north of the platform, which would prevent the traincrew from being able to see the guard if the train was stopped with the guard's van on the platform, as is correct practice.
The siding is now used for the storage of permanent way vehicles. A small band of volunteers have occasional "work-ins" to keep the station environs tidy.
There have recently been calls to restore the station for use on gala weekends and such. This has happened previously, during the Autumn 1998 steam gala, when the Hampton - Bridgnorth local called in each direction, despite not being booked to stop.
