Report - Willington Train Station - November 2019

[chidgeyb94]

i dont have much history on this place all i know is its in adjacent to the old varsity line which ran through its location in willington, vandals got the better of this place and it now looks like a local crack shed but seeing it was a little reminisce on how things used to be. Side Note im new to this platform and i am struggling to navigate it properly if i have posted this thread somewhere i shouldn't have please let me know. hope you enjoy the pictures we covered this on our youtube channel if anyone is interested in watching the video send me a message over.

i can assure you it is it goes on for about 100m but is now over grown. it would of been a small station style platform
