I've read about this somewhere, isn't the idea that a somewhat basic
station
is prefabricated off site and delivered on a few lorries? Possibly
they've
looked back at some of the 'el cheapo' stations in the region -
Berrylands
on the SWML looks as though it was knocked up pretty quickly...

The interesting thing is that the line is on a slight curve at this
point, and i thought stations built on curves were now a big no no?!!
Berrylands went up in the 1930s and i dont think took too long!


I thought they worry more about excess gradients, but would expect there is
some small amount of curvature that is legit on existing lines?
