Freshwater railway station, was the westerly terminus 〔(Subterranea Britannica's page on Freshwater station ) - Nick Catford〕 and largest station 〔Pomeroy, C,A "Isle Of Wight Railways, Then and Now": Oxford,Past & Present Publishing, 1993, ISBN 0-947971-62-9〕 of the Freshwater, Yarmouth and Newport Railway, the platform being extended to accommodate the “Tourist Train”, a non-stop service from Ventnor.〔Maycock,R.J/Silsbury,R: The Freshwater, Yarmouth and Newport Railway: Usk, Oakwood, 2003 ISBN 0-85361-601-9〕 Incorporated as the Freshwater, Yarmouth and Newport Railway Company in 1860,〔Bennett,A "Southern Holiday Lines in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight": Cheltenham, Runpast 1994 ISBN 1-870754-31-X〕 and opened over a ten-month period between 1888 and 1889, it closed 65 years later,〔Hay,P "Steaming Through the Isle Of Wight": Midhurst,Middleton, 1988 ISBN 0-906520-56-8〕 having been situated too far from the tourist honeypots of The Needles and Alum Bay to be consistently profitable.〔Britton,A "Once upon a line (Vol 4)": Oxford, OPC, 1994 ISBN 0-86093-513-2〕 There was a run-round loop, and a goods siding often used for cattle loading. After closure the station was built over by a factory,〔Gammell C.J "Southern Branch Lines": Oxford, OPC, 1997 ISBN 0-86093-537-X〕 but this in turn has been demolished and a supermarket now occupies the site.〔
