Marlborough railway stations

Marlborough railway stations refers to the two railway stations which served Marlborough, Wiltshire, England, until 1964. The stations were on separate routes. A branch line was built by an independent railway friendly to the Great Western Railway (GWR) from Savernake to Marlborough in 1864. A north

–south railway, later to be part of a long-distance trunk route, opened from Swindon to its station at Marlborough in 1881, extending south to Andover in 1881. The two routes came under the same management at the "Grouping" of the railways in 1923 and some rationalisation took place. Passenger services to Marlborough were withdrawn in 1961 and goods services in 1964.
