Welcome - my home station was once Walton Junction.

Whether FGW (First Great Western)'s HST (High Speed Train)'s ever get back to Birkenhead Woodside, or the gaps in the third rail between Allerton Junction/Chester and Reading Spur Junction get filled, you will be find a (dear) home down here.

Bring your 507 (and some warm weather gear).
