Hungerford railway station is a railway station in the town of Hungerford, Berkshire, England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by Great Western Railway. ==History== The Great Western Railway opened the station in 1847 as a temporary terminus of the Berks and Hants Line which started at Reading. In 1862 the Berks and Hants was extended to . It eventually reached Taunton on 2 April 1906 to allow the running of express trains from through to the south west without taking the longer route through Bristol.〔(GWR Hungerford branch ). Accessed 2 September 2007〕 The station ceased to deal with goods traffic in 1970 and became an unstaffed halt with subsequent demolition of the station buildings (except the 1902 footbridge over the lines) in 1971. The footbridge was replaced by the current modern structure in 1999. A freight train crashed on 10 November 1971 partially demolishing the GWR signal box, which was then replaced by a modern wooden flat roofed signal box which served until the end of semaphore signalling and the introduction of colour light signals on 17 July 1978.〔(Source Hungerford Historical Association)〕
