Wootton Wawen / Danzey / Wood End / The Lakes Request Stops
It's Tuesday 16th July 2019, and on the line in-between Stratford-upon-Avon and Birmingham, there's a line with four request stops - Wootton Wawen, Danzey, Wood End and The Lakes. And I started at Wilmcote, the same place as last week for Bearley and Claverdon! Oh and there's a small matter of an aqueduct too ...

Geoff: How did you know to stop? Train Manager: Well, I saw that it was Geoff Marshall and supposed he was doing a least used all the request stops so 🤷♂️ This is on my route to work. Now even more tempted to skip the office and just go to one of these lovely stations.
Looking forward to "All the Canals"

I knew a guard on the line to Stratford many years ago, and on more than one occasion on arrival at 'The Lakes' he was met with requests from people with American accents asking "is this the stop for Windemere"'? Alas, seems they had asked for a ticket to 'The Lakes' and ended up in rural Warwickshire, rather than the Lake District.....

We had a friend from abroad staying with us a while back whose English accent was a bit difficult to understand. He asked us which London station he needed to use to get to ‘Brissle’? We thought for a moment and decided he meant ‘Bristol’, so told him to go to Paddington. He went off for his trip, returning a couple of days later to tell us we had got it wrong, and he had to leave from Waterloo, but never mind, here was a present of some of the local chocolate. Only then did we realise he had meant ‘Bruxelles’!
Conductor: Geoff is getting on. Better tell the driver to stop at next request stop
I had a vision of a cctv operator in some far off control room watching Geoff rolling a bicycle wheel along the platform of some remote railway station. I cannot imagine what he or she must have thought upon watching the loon with the bike wheel doing his stuff.

The reason he stopped at Wood End without anyone requesting it is because the Guard had no way of accessing the front unit, due to a lack of end gangway. When this happens, it is common practice for the train to stop at all request stops, just in case anyone in the front unit wants the stop. As such, it wasn't a hunch, just the norm.

@@simontay4851 Lots of trains in the UK have what is called a gangway on the front, which is basically a corridor to allow the guard, and passengers, to walk between two trains coupled together. In this instance, it was two trains coupled that didn't have this facility, and thus, the guard could not get through to 2 of the 4 carriages to ask if anyway passengers wanted the station. In normal practice, the Guard would ring the driver, or even use the signal bells, instead of walking up to the cab and telling the driver verbally, if a passenger wanted the request stop.

Geoff - the black and white running in boards are typical Great Western Railway style - the posts which support them have distinctive finials on top. Incidentally, the footbridge from Henley in Arden was replaced a few years ago. The original one was donated to the GWSR heritage railway and now resides at the rebuilt Broadway station in Worcestershire. (I should say, most of it is there - the support towers and footsteps were corroded beyond rescue!)
My season ticket takes me to Wootton Wawen. I have never embarked or alighted there; I commute in to Bham New St. But it is the same price to include all the way to Wootton Wawen. Been meaning to go there on my bike and cycle all the way home, but you’ve saved me the effort of exploring. Thanks Geoff!
Hello Geoff, I hope all is well. This is actually the line which I get to school every morning and come home every evening (from Whitlocks End to Stratford-Upon-Avon). On the morning service (arriving in Stratford at 8:23), the train almost always stops at the request stops, similarly to the 16:26 service departing in Stratford. On the 17:26, the train rarely stops at any of the request stops. I think it is only request during Off-Peak hours, and times when less people are on the train.
Hi Geoff, I just love your videos. Especially this one. I went on the Shakespeare Line many a times from Brum to Stratford upon Avon since an old time friend lives in Alcester. Not long ago the (from my point of view) elegant trains of London Midland ran on this particular line. Best regards from Vienna, Austria.
Yes it was a former 172 of the goblin as it has a flat faced front as the other 172s are similar fronts to the 377s and 375s. I think they also have interconnecting doors as well.
Wouldn't it have been easier to leave the wheel on the bike and just walk with the bike? :-)

The guard normally walks through the train after Henley-in-Arden saying "Any request stops". As there was no gangway between the two 172/0's forming the train, this would not have been possible, hence the reason for stopping at Wood End without any actual request.
Thank you for finally doing these! I used to commute on this line but never far enough towards Stratford and would see these request stops on the next stops of the train
I used to work in Wootton Wawen, so used that station very regularly. Only twice in two years was there no guard and I had to get off at the next stop and get the next train back. Danzey is great for Tanworth in Arden. Used as ‘Kings Oak’ in TVs Crossroads for many years.

Running-in Boards were originally placed near the ends of the platform so they were easily read as the train ran into the station. Those particular ones are the typical GWR style. Although the board may have been replaced the cast letters and posts are almost certainly original GWR features.
How thoughtful of the planners at Wood End to give raised platforms and signs for prams and wheelchairs so when they get off they can sit and wait to get back on to more accessible stop.
Do the guards recognise you when you get on now? “Oh no. Here comes Geoff Marshall stopping at all the stations.” 😂

It is well worth popping in there next time if your in the area and if your into pie they do one of the best pie and mash meals around. There is a great choice of real ales as well I must add. By the way, my brother works on that line as a Senior Conductor. I was looking to see if he was on duty when you did your journey but I couldn’t see him. Great video Geoff. 😊👍
That's what I'm into. I take my bike on day trips out on the train. I have even done that as a holiday. It's great fun. Its nice to know that you have the same taste as me, awsome. I'll have to check that place out some time soon.
Totally agree about the atmosphere at request stop stations. My favourite one is Santon Station on the Isle of Man, where I go on vacation most years.
My dad was 47 years on the London to Brighton line as firemen then engine driver in 1949. Found his certificate the other day very humbling.

Always wondered what was up these steps at Wood End. Used to be old concrete ones exiting from the side Geoff was hanging out on. Did an all stations bike ride once from Shirley to Stratford and found that Wood End is a seriously well to do place. Next to nothing in the vicinity of Danzey Station but Tanworth in Arden is just up the road, birthplace (and resting place) of Nick Drake. I believe Mike Hailwood is buried in the same churchyard. I used to drive this line regularly and had a great rapport with the regular passengers. Great to see the guards I used to work with too. All good blokes.

In Argentina all of our signposts for the stations are in that font and, of course, balck & white. A small piece of heritage of the railways you´ve built for us jajaja
Geoff. The train that you left at Wood End was a 170, not a 172. Wood End always fascinated me as a boy as we used to pass the entrance on our journey from Broadway to Birmingham Airport. There was a station sign and a gate but no sign of a bridge or where the station actually was. From Broadway our journey took us past Willersey Halt, Weston Sub Edge, Honeybourne Junction, then after the river bridge at Bidford on Avon there came Wixford Halt, where we crossed the line, and then re crossed it before Alcester. After the mysterious sign for Wood End station the next notable railway infrastructure was the level crossing which had massive gates to cross the four track main line between Birmingham and Lapworth. Having been interested in railways all my life, (Train damaged my sister said) I now work for West Midlands Railway .

I American and I've only taken the train from London to Manchester and the price seemed quite high. A nice feature to include in these videos would be the cost of each leg.
Some interesting facts. The line got within a day of being closed in the late 1960s. It was saved by getting a high court injunction. You will see plaques in honour of the late Derek Mayman who lead the campaign to save it. The injunction was lifted in the 1980s when BR tried to close Henley to Bearley Junction. Danzey Green station was once used as Kings Oak Station in Crossroads - it serves Tanworth in Arden which was Kings Oak in the TV series. Wood End has a pub by the station entrance. It also very expensive houses - famous residents included, Roger Moore, Mike Hailwood and Karen Brady.

172004 is ex London Overground. It was transferred up with a few others earlier this year, had the DOO CCTV removed, a toilet fitted (at Ilford if you care about this sort of thing) and got a lick of paint. The Harrington Humps at stations on this line were fitted when the other 172s came into service in 2011, I believe they had to be installed because the gap from the train door to the platform surface was bigger than it was on the old 150s which used to work on the Snow Hill lines and was on the wrong side of some kind of threshold.

Slightly off topic, but whilst in the area you ought to ride the Lickey Incline which is the steepest sustained main-line railway incline in Great Britain. The climb is a gradient of 1 in 37.7 (2.65% or 26.5‰ or 1.52°) for a continuous distance of two miles (3.2 km). The Lickey incline runs from Bromsgrove to Barnt Green and passes through Blackwell (disused) where bankers used to be kept to help trains ascend the hill.

When I travel on the railways I make a habit of taking pictures of the platform signs and recently I travelled down the Shakespeare line to S-u-A and the train stopped at all 4 of the request stops, so I managed to get my pictures, but at only 1 did someone get off. It was an early rush hour train, it left Moor Street at around half 4, so maybe that was the reason why?

so if the platform is 19 revolutions and is the wheel circumference or diameter 26 inches. let's say the diameter is 26 inches circumference = pix26 =81.68 81.68x19 revolutions=1551.9 inches which is equivalent to 3939.54cm or 39 and a bit meters
