A very enjoyable afternoon spent at Iver station on the Great Western Mainline where we see plenty of services from Great Western Railway and West Coast Railways.
Iver station was opened by the Great Western Railway in 1924 making it one of the younger stations on the Great Western Mainline. There really isn't much to tell about this station. This section of the line is where the North Star made its trail run by Robert Stephenson who built the locomotive.
The only other thing that ever happened here was in the 1940's when the Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University stepped out of a moving train, apparently he was nearly blind at the time so my only assumption is he thought the train had come to a safe speed to step off but was sadly crushed.
My next station is going to be West Drayton.
