I wonder if anyone ever chances upon my musings, not written anything for a few years so worth a try.
Astrop Sidings, an enigmatic little location south of Banbury, just beyond the iron curtain where east meets west, or at least LMR meets WR at Heyford.
Just a single turn box by the time of this Train Register, one regular man, busy little box though.... No running water, this was delivered by either a light engine (which did similar at Aynho) or DMU.
As with anything like this, it was too good to last and succumbed to closure in 1979.
