Further Notes
ACD - Wed 27/11/1946 - PNM 1980 p21.
Entry in CPLGB p28 No.261 reads "Stirchley St. (Bournville) - King's Norton; Closing Date - 26/09/1885; Station at closing date - Lifford (1.6.1876) - presumably opening date; Note 184 - Replaced by new direct line. New Lifford station on Camp Hill line".
Was earlier ACD to RTS and later date to SDS? Unable to ascertain which, if any, services traversed this route. Can anyone shed any light? Will need to study WTTs.
