Talk:Congleton railway station

Goods Yard
So according to British Railways Past and Present no 40 Cheshire page 101 Congleton Railway Station once had a goods yard.

I am just wondering if the goods yard at Congleton Railway station was Brunswick Wharf which is where trains on the Biddulph Valley line terminated.

Does anybody have any sources to say wether the goods yard at Congleton railway station was Brunswick Wharf? Maurice Oly (talk) 18:49, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Try asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways, lots of experts there. G-13114 (talk) 19:42, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the advice @G-13114 I’ll do that. Maurice Oly (talk) 20:25, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Rebuilt
Does anybody know and have any reliable sources as to when Congleton Railway Station was rebuilt?

The following books all show Congleton Railway station as it looked when built, however how the station looked when built and how it looks now are very different.

I think the station may have been rebuilt in the 60s as a photo and Present no 40 Cheshire shows the station having it’s platfroms altered. Maurice Oly (talk) 03:39, 10 February 2022 (UTC)


 * The architectural style is typical 1960s/1970s. So it was most likely rebuilt around the time the line was electrified in the mid 60s. BR rebuilt loads of stations on the WCML and its branches around that time. However it needs a proper reference. The architecture looks somewhat like the prefabricated CLASP designs used by BR around that time, although it's in the wrong part of the country for that.

Level Crossing gates removed event box
Ok folks so I want to reach a consensus here, it is worth having the removal of the level crossing gates in it’s own event box anymore? I ask this as there will soon be no event boxes left, and the level crossing was removed as part of the rebuild which is mentioned in the history section. Maurice Oly (talk) 20:14, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
