Felixstowe

This part of Felixstowe station was still in use when I last visited in 1971 but is now part of a shopping mall, as seen on 3rd May 2023. The Felixstowe Railway opened independently from Westerfield on the East Suffolk Line to Felixstowe Pier via Felixstowe Beach on 1st May 1877 and was bought by the GER on 5th July 1887. They opened a spur to this larger and more convenient station called Felixstowe Town on 1st July 1898. Apologies for my shadow in the foreground.
