Bradley and Moxley railway station
Bradley and Moxley railway station was a small intermediate station on the Great Western Railway's London Paddington to Birkenhead via Birmingham Snow Hill line. It was opened in 1862[1] and served the small communities of Bradley and Moxley in the West Midlands, England. It closed on 1 May 1915,[1] with the coming of the First World War. Due to poor patronage, it didn't reopen following the end of hostilities. A Midland Metro station was opened at Bradley Lane nearby in 1999.
