Swanage Railway Station Platform

This photo from 1974 shows the former railway platform looking West with rubble and other rubbish where the lines had been installed.

The line closed to passenger services from 3 January 1972 after the Beeching cuts. A short line was reopened in 1979 along the length of King Georges playing fields.
