Coordinates
[edit]The coordinates point to Four Ashes. This is probably wrong for Bushbury Station. It is not near Showell Road/Bushbury Lane as per article. Any proof of the real location?Oosoom Talk 15:15, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
- Better coordfinates estimated from description of location at http://www.localhistory.scit.wlv.ac.uk/articles/bushbury/19thcent.htm "Bushbury Station was opened to passengers on August 2nd 1852. It was situated between the two main lines at the junction and was approached by a footpath from the road bridge in Bushbury Lane behind the signal box." Oosoom Talk 20:26, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
- After seeing this thread and asking my grannie who lived there, she confirmed it was on the junction just past the bridge. She said there wasn't a station but a platform but wasn't sure if was for public or materials but said the Queen visited the Goodyear factory via there. I imagine it would have been where the Gala Bingo building was....putting my Sherlock hat on....the Railway club is still there too which would add up.
