Summary[edit]

Description
English: Mystery railway sign, Stafford Common Station Odd looking sign at the end of the eastbound (Uttoxeter) platform at Stafford Common Railway station, closed to Passengers on 4th December 1939. The line survived for freight and for special servicemens trains until final closure to all regular traffic on 5th March 1951, the last train over the line being an SLS special in March 1957. The track east of this point was lifted in 1959 but the remainder was retained for use by engineers in connection with electrification work on the West Coast Main Line. This stub was finally taken out of use in December 1975.
