Maxstoke Railway Stop (disused)

 invisible, former train/railway station

Historical Maxstoke Raiway stop, site of Coleshill, later Maxstoke railway station building demolished in 1964.
" Coleshill station was opened by the Birmingham and Derby Junction Railway in 1839 to link Derby, via Whitacre Junction, with Hampton-in-Arden. However, with more attractive links being built for Derby traffic, such as Whitacre being linked to Birmingham Lawley Street, passenger numbers dwindled to the point where the line was singled and the passenger service reduced to one train in each direction per day from 1842 until its closure to passenger traffic in 1917. In 1923 the station was renamed Maxstoke, with Forge Mills being renamed Coleshill, and retained as a goods facility until final closure in 1939 with the line being lifted finally in 1952. "
