Calne Station, c. 1950s
The end of the Chippenham to Calne branch line is shown in this image of Calne Station. The buffer stops are sandwiched between the main passenger platform alongside the booking office and waiting room, and the small milk dock which was used for both goods and passengers alike. The sign at the end of the building was for RAF personnel from Yatebury and Comton Bassett radio training schools, thus dating this photo to the 1950s or early 1960 s

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1950s, capturing a moment frozen in time at Calne Station. The image showcases the end of the Chippenham to Calne branch line, revealing a charming scene filled with nostalgic details. In this snapshot, we see the buffer stops nestled between two important areas of the station. On one side stands the bustling main passenger platform, complete with a quaint booking office and waiting room. Passengers eagerly await their trains while soaking in the atmosphere of this small but vibrant hub. On the other side lies a small milk dock that served both goods and passengers alike. This versatile space was witness to countless comings and goings throughout its existence. It's fascinating how such an unassuming spot played such an integral role in connecting people and transporting essential supplies. Adding another layer of historical significance is a sign at the end of the building specifically catering to RAF personnel from Yatebury and Comton Bassett radio training schools. This detail firmly places this photograph within either the 1950s or early 1960s timeframe. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we're transported back to an era when train travel was not only practical but also imbued with charm and character. It serves as a reminder of how stations like Calne were once vital lifelines for communities, fostering connections that shaped local life for generations.
