BR 9F Goldicot Cutting A
"I knew the Stratford to Broom ganger Harry Campion quit well, he said that Goldicote cutting was
65 ft. deep at its deepest point. Andrew Whitehead."
‘The Stratford Upon Avon & Midland Junction Railway’ (or S.M.J.) was a small independent railway company which ran a line across the empty, untouched centre of England. It visited the counties of Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and a little of Buckinghamshire, only existing as the SMJ from 1909 to 1923. In 1923 the S.M.J.became a minor arm of the London Midland and Scottish (L.M.S.), then in 1948 'British Railways'
