The approach to Highbridge (GWR) station. The S&D station site is under the housing beyond the footbridge. The footbridge is a truncated version, it would have at one time connected the GWR and S&D stations.

An old office stands on the approach road. I assume this is now used (occasionaly) as a ticket office?

Looking north from the end of the platform. The S&D railway line crossed the GWR one on the level at this spot. The junction in this photo is called Highbridge East and allows freight trains to use the loop line at the west of the station as a refuge. The bridge carries Market Street across the railway.

The view south from the same spot. The down main is blocked by an engineering possession.

A look at the truncated end of the footbridge and the housing that stands on the S&D Railway station site. A signalbox stood here and controlled both the GWR and S&D lines. It closed on 20th March 1972.

The S&D line cossed the GWR at this spot and curved to the left of this photo close to where the relay room is. Highbridge Goods Shed stood at the spot now occupied by the semi-circular shed in the distance. It closed to traffic on 2nd November 1964. I don't think I've ever seen quite so much litter at a location!

The Kwik Save in the distance stands on the route of the S&D route to Burnham on Sea.

A further look north from Highbridge station.

Shelters on platform 2.

Looking south from the footbridge. The down main has a warning beacon on it. The platforms narrow where the station crosses the River Brue. The up goods loop is bi-directional and can be used by trains travelling south.

The view south from the end of platform 2. Highbridge West junction is at the other end of the goods loop.

A last look at the roadbridge at the north end of Highbridge station. A repetition of previous photos, included simply because I really like the way this one came out :)
