Craven Arms formerly Craven Arms and Stokesay
(1852 - )
The Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway company was the first to serve the town, arriving from the north in 1852 and completing its route through to Hereford the following year
The route from Much Wenlock was completed by the Wenlock, Craven Arms and Lightmoor Extension railway in 1867 (joining the main line a few miles north of the town at Marsh Farm Junction)
The station has two platforms, connected by a footbridge. Platform 1, on the west side, serves northbound trains to Shrewsbury and beyond as well as trains both to and from Swansea via the Heart of Wales Line. Platform 2, on the town side of the station, serves southbound trains to Hereford and Cardiff
The line to Much Wenlock would remain little altered throughout its life, until the passenger trains ceased in 1951 but goods traffic continued until May 1968
The station is still open and serves the Welsh Marches Line and the Heart of Wales Line, 20 miles (32 km) south of Shrewsbury. There are no ticketing facilities, no permanent buildings other than standard metal and plexiglass waiting shelters on each platform and no staff
