The railway ticket (above) was issued by the Great Western Railway for third class travel from Great Malvern to Malvern Link. This journey is barely one mile in length and it is possible to see one station from the other.
This old postcard shows the station as it was before much of it was demolished.
This is Central Trains Centro livery class 150 dmu No.150202 arriving at Malvern Link Station with the 13:43 from Birmingham New Street to Hereford train. The large tower in the background is part of Malvern Fire Station.
Thames Trains 'Turbo' class 166 No.166208 arrives at Malvern Link Station with the 15:53 from Great Malvern to Paddington. The trees on the right hand side of the platform occupy the space where a siding existed until the late 1960s.
This waste ground that is occupied by a few caravans was once part of the extensive sidings at Malvern Link. These closed in the late 1960s and they along with an impressive signalbox that once occupied the foreground area of this photograph were removed.
All three photographs were taken by Andrew Smith on 13th September 2002.
This is Collett 0-6-0 No.2244 of Worcester Shed shunting in the sidings at the east end of Malvern Link Station on 7th February 1965.
Collett 2-6-2T No.6129 of Stourbridge Shed has charge of the 18:35 passenger train from Ledbury to Worcester on 31st March 1965. Note the rather nice "2C" plate denoting that this former GWR Shed was now in the London Midland Region of British Railways.
