Windsor Junction Station

Surrounded by tracks on all sides, the Windsor Junction Station was an important interchange for passengers and freight and railway control point for over a century. It was also home to generations of station staff and their families who fulfilled the railway duties of the busy junction and also tended trees and gardens amidst the cinders and coal smoke.
