I am grateful to John Attfield for allowing me to use some of his images in this gallery. This is Kingscote station, looking north, on 17 July 1966 after the removal of the track. At the time the canopies were still intact but the platforms were very overgrown. John Attfield retains all rights to this image.
Kingscote has long had a problem with rainwater running down the adjacent hill and flooding the booking hall, causing much inconvenience and work for staff. In early 2017 new drains were installed which are intended to catch the water and discharge it into an existing land drain to the right of this photograph. 11.06.2017 17358

The tarmac leading away from the porch covers the pipe which takes the water away. 11.06.2017 17357
