An architectural DELIGHT! Culham station old ticket office. Re-opened specially for @175Oxf #oxford175 today by volunteers, just south of Oxford. Beautifully restored by @networkrail with a @RailwayHeritage grant. And @HistoricEngland grade II* listed. My rating: LOVELY.

[Vintage Trains @Vintage_Trains]

Thanks for this, Tim! Glad to see it so busy celebrating such a significant milestone for @175Oxf

@HenryWellsbourn @MrTimDunn @Vintage_Trains @GWRHelp That's a split platform. Trains used to stop at the closer one, but now all stop and the on further away.
