Stroud Road railway station

Last updated

Stroud Road was a railway station on the North Coast railway line in New South Wales, Australia. It was originally opened in 1913 [1] to serve the town of Stroud, which was some distance away, as this was as near as the railway could get at an affordable cost. Stroud Road eventually grew into a small town in its own right.
