History
Still visible at the station is the junction from which the Banbury and Cheltenham Direct Railway routes headed west to Cheltenham via Stow-on-the-Wold and east to King's Sutton near Banbury. This branch line saw one major through train each day, the Ports to Ports Express between Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Barry, South Wales.
