Talk:Tunbridge Wells West railway station

Untitled
This article really is a pleasant surprise. I was quite taken aback to see that the West Station even had its own Wikipedia page, and then to see all the detail and research that a few individuals have put into this is truly impressive. The Yablochkov lamp, the rival companies, the old adverts. In all the years I've been vaguely aware of that station, I never knew anything of that rich history. Great stuff guys, keep up the good work. Palefire (talk) 22:07, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Revival: Spur to Grove Junction
'The spur to Grove Junction remains in an overgrown state; it was sold for £1 in 2001 to Railway Paths Ltd (a subsidiary of Sustrans), but is protected by covenants ensuring that it can only be used for railway purposes; the section is also safeguarded from development in the East Sussex and Brighton and Hove Structure Plan 1991-2011 as well as the Wealden Local Plan.[25]'

Railway Paths Ltd isn't a subsidiary of Sustrans, this may be checked by reference to the register of Companies House and viewing 'Persons with significant control, here. As far as I can tell, Sustrans only has one subsidiary, Sustrans (Trading) Limited.

For information, subsequent to 2001, Railway Paths sold the spur to the east of Warwick Park, and now only retains the tunnel. For detailed mapping please see here. The covenants safeguarding development remain in place.
